Hey guys I decided I wanted my gsp to expand and move more. I have glued it too the wall for now almost 3 months, but no signs of growth have occured. I know the risks i'm taking.
 
I pace a small bit on my overflow....needless to say when it takes off you will regret it..be careful what you wish for....
 
Dirty Martini Dirty. Filthy water you wouldn't even consider dropping a cheap bird's nest into if you wanted it to grow.
My GSP is spreading across the back wall at around 1 - 3 inches per month. Nitrate spikes around 60 - 90. Big fat fish live in that tank. :)

In my experience, gsp likes dirty water.
 
Agreed: dirty water and flow.
