[Mercurio]

I just picked up a frag of this today and it's acclimating as we speak. Its pretty browned out right now except for the tips but is completely encrusted on the base. I'll post some pics later.

You will have to try and find a vendor or LFS that orders from Ora or try live they carry Ora also.

After three months of very slow encrusting mine is starting to show a bit of branch growth. Not enuf for a pic, at least it's something. Colors have stayed well.

A better pic of my ORA Shortcake. I got home in time before my lights went down for the evening.

Here is mine. Got it about a month ago. Already encrusting off the plug on the rock.

That is a generous piece. Jeez!

 

[Alabamareef]

It's grown a lot in the past few weeks.

Wowwww!!!!!! That's amazing, that's a lot of growth. I'm jealous.

Alabamareef, you using acropower? Details please....

 

[Alabamareef]

Have been using it, almost finished one bottle but have not really noticed it doing anything.

Maybe that is where that rapid growth comes from. Who knows. What size tank? How many ml do you dose? How often?

 

[Alabamareef]

Always had good growth in my tank, before acropower. Just used the acropower to try to enhance the color. Its a 180 gallon system and I've been dosing 5ml every day. Honestly this is my last bottle. I ddi want to give it a try though. Not much for the miracle juice. Good lights, clean water, lots of flow and feed often i think thats how the growth is so rapid.

Oh ok. Do you find your glass getting filled with deposits often?

 

[mtnrunner]

I can't find the ORA strawberry shortcake available anywhere. Any suggestions for suppliers?

 

[Alabamareef]

No deposits just have to do the occasional cleaning of the glass due to a light dusting of algae.

Call ORA and ask them for a dealer near you. From them you should be able to order one. Think I gave $70.00 for mine. Their number in located on this web page.
