I truly am amazed at how quickly this jack-o-lantern lepto is already showing growth since picking up at the ffm. @Triggreef

I switch from the frag plug to a larger tile and can see it is already started to grow onto the superglue buildup, some darn good growth if you ask me.

 
I hope mine grows as fast!
I just got it yesterday.

The ones I've seen at the LFS grow onto the frag rack in just a month or two.
 
It's a great grower and for me one of my fav pieces only thing is when u frag it its hardy but gets white marks where u touch it but heals up so far for me very well
 
Mine grows pretty fast. Within a couple months it was touching other frags on my rack and I had to frag it up... Growing back again.

I don't have a recent pic, but this was a month after I got it. Started as just the mound with no growth off the plug.

It is a pretty coral. I wish there was a way to keep all these encrusting types separated because I LIKE THEM ALL!! lol

I have some nice ones from FFM waiting to grow out, like an orange with green growth rim, and another orange and yellow but smooth no lines and several neon green ones I don't know what they are.
 
I don't know why but for some reason it seems encrusting corals, chalices, lepto,montis, all seem to grow very quickly. Which is ok by me.
