Need help with my GSP

[cdemoss01]

Hello,
Been a minute since I've actually posted about coral on here.. I have a small rock with some GSP on it and I want it to spread to the rest of the rock in the photo below. It's not attached to this rock it's just a small sawed of price with GSP on it that I wedged into it. It won't grow whatsoever, the reason it's closed up is because I moved it. What can I do to help it?

Brother, it will take off on its own. Make sure your parameters are in check and pretty soon you'll be asking how to get rid of it!

I just want it to carpet.. I wanna have a small colony all over that part of the rocks, is it possible to have a small colony and hammers growing on the rock with it?

Yes, the hammers will keep it back. You may need to scrape the GSP if it encroaches on the hammer skeleton.

^^^ Yep, just what I was about to say. It’s super easy to scrape off thankfully!

Scraping GSP off hammer trunks sounds like underwater yardwork!

Interesting.. I know some reefers HATE GSP but I love it.

I like it too if you can contain it on a rock or on the back glass. I love how it flows and moves in the current.

Can it climb up the back wall? If so that'd be incredible..

For more contained GSP, you could do the branching version if it becomes too much of a nuisance for the hammer.
