Jedi mind trick. Let’s see them and where did you put it?

[Efranco]

Pretty fast grower it seems like.

I feed alot of phyto and rotifers

 

[DSC reef]

Reef nutrition oyster feast has done wonders for feeding all our montis and acros

 

[Steve Ruddy]

AI Hydra LED, one on bottom 130 par, one 6" off bottom 190 par.

 

[biecacka]

Man, I hope mine starts to grow like that. Mine has been a slower grower thus far.

Mine sat dormant for about 2 months, even turned brown at one point. Then it became a colorful fast grower.

 

[saltyhog]

Mine has grown pretty quickly and is about 5" across. It's on the bottom directly under a Hydra52 that's 11" over a 21" tank

 

[Robink]

I keep mine on the sandbed under radion g4's.
I'll post a pic tomorrow when lights come on. It's a frag of my original colony that was about 6-7 inches in my other tank. It was about a 1-2 inch frag that I kept and it's about 3 inches around now. Been through 2 tank moves. One of my favorite corals, love the color.

 

[NY_Caveman]

Cool! Looking forward to it.

Mine seems to be the most sensitive in my tank. It'll go dim for days then be back bright as ever and growing for weeks.

I put 3 fragments onto a spiral piece of broken conch shell that my girlfriend found on the beach. I'm hoping it looks good when it overtakes the shell. There is a 1inch astrea snail for size reference.

I agree. It shows a change in chemistry very quickly for me.

 

[Robink]

This is mine. It's just over 4" x 4". I keep it on the sandbed.

 

[ghrorick]

Mine sits about 3 inches from the bottom of my 120.

 

[NY_Caveman]

Very nice. Any problems so far from that Favia (sweepers?)?

 

[Heath Biggers]

Started from four frags Separately placed and then all grown together about a year ago

 

[Jam-reef]

Mine is mid way under XR15 modified radiant color program. Non direct MP10 flow. About 8 months old.

Well it’s mid way now, sandbed in this picture obviously. Really does well either place. Dosing AF 1,2,3.

So when on the sand bed are they just on a drag plug and they grow out over the sand?

What is the best way to keep the encrusting coral from taking over zones? Or you just let them? Do they attach to the rock or are they easy to break off?

 

[100gallonreefer]

This is mine .About 6 inches across.Encrusting on 3 different rocks. Placed 1:2 way up a 24 inch tall tank. Sb reeflight 32 wi fi 18” above coral.

coral was 1/2 “ about 18 months ago. Slow but steady grower.

 

[David S]

Here is Mine. It’s the only spot it grows reliably. Right in that exact spot on the sand bed. Any time I move it it stops growing. I nearly killed this one save for 3 paint chip sized pieces that I glued to a rock. Is the sandbed ok? Or should put it on a larger rock?

Here is mine. As you can see it may be in a bit of a war with the Sunset Monti.
Both started as plugs on the rockwork at sand level in my 38g. Radion Gen 3 and T5's ramping up as I took pic.
I look every day to see if there are any issues between them. So far so good.
