Low about 250 Need to start pumping it up along with my flow. That thing cost me $1800 for one of the nubs And you can see it’s grown to a good 7-8!!!!! What’s it worth now :)
Yes, splice, correct? I have a couple

What par did you cook at and what par are you at now ?
It’s a 34g tank, Reefer 170 with a Kessil 500x 9 inches above tank in middle. I had turned it up alittle since my splices turned more green and seemed to lose the red mottling. Well, I had to turn it back down since everything didn’t like that, including the mimosa clam. I think it was at 200, I used an Apogee 510. Could be something else but I haven’t a clue. Still close, I’ll have to check it again.

nubs these days are around $400 hobbiest price or $800 vendor price , I got a very red 3/4in frag for $500. It’s a nicely colored colony, I’d say you could get ~ $2500. You can get more cutting it up if you did, the more red the more the frags sell for.

Walt Disney topping out at $90
And my new blood bank from battle corals grow out contest at $100. But that included shipping so I think WD is the most in my tank.
But these are what I actually paid.
But more expensive is what has grown out.
What are these worth?
