Jawbreaker Growing recommendations?

[1MJG1]

Hey Fellow Reefers,
I just became the new parent of a baby JB mushroom. Was curious from those with experience growing these little gems what the best parameters were for color/growth. More interested in flow, lighting, feeding etc. Let me know and thanks for your time and help.

They're very hardy in my experience. I have kept them all over the tank, in all different intensities of lighting, and amounts of flow. The ones in moderate light and light flow seem to do the best for me size and color wise. I even have a few about 12" under a 6 bulb t5 fixture that do fairly well, but seem to not grow as quickly. Too much flow you risk it detaching and floating off.

Thanks for the info! Did yours ever develop any green?

No problem at all. I have seen some specks of green in my two largest but for some odd reason it seems to come and go. I haven't been able to figure out why.
