There are three smaller ones and the larger original colony. The small pieces are each about 4"x6" the main colony is about 6"x10". Its a scroll type hammer so a bit harder to break down into small frags hence the large pieces to rehome. I had to do some re-aqua scaping a while back to deal with it as it was starting to crowd the front glass. It is a lot of green right now, I'd like to get some more colour variation once I free up the space. The GSP is another battle to keep from overtaking the whole tank.

I guess excessive coral growth it is a good problem to have.

You might need a bandsaw for those scroll types, but large colonies like that are difficult to come by and you should be proud of how large you've grown them. To be honest, I think it looks quite good as is, but if you're really looking to remove something I'd keep your hammers over the GSP. I do like the green, reminds me of a nice planted aquarium. The camera was just a bit far.

I do try to keep the GSP under control by removing it from time to time. It is mostly growing on the back wall and covering the overflow box on araga-crete panels I made a loooong time ago. When I separated the hammer colony, I used a small haldheld saw to strategically cut off the sections where there were some natural gaps. I'll try to get some better photos to share here, that one was just what I had in my recent files and was taken as an overview for the vacation tank sitter when I was away last month.

Yes, we would love to see! How old is that hammer?
