Stony GSP?

[mark.nicodemus59]

I just bought 2 large segments of GSP locally. At first, I thought he was trying to sell me staghorn stems, but turns out it is GSP. It has curled inward and fused together in long, stiff, branched tubes. What should I do?

Pictures under white light not heavy blue would be better to see what’s going on

Do you have more pictures? I'm curious about this too!

These are the white-light images.

Its branching GSP. Same polyps different skeletal structure, less invasive than regular GSP. Usually costs about 3 times the price too.

Pretty good find if you ask me, tons of possibilities.

I paid $12 for the single branch, $16 for the double.

Its not nearly as common as the regular matt type variety. Id keep it if I were you. It can spread over rock and glass, just like the other kind. But it does not grow as fast. Its easier to manage.

Neat! I love my branching GSP. Definitely recommend keeping it.

Just keep it isolated and it will be beautiful!
