Just received a frag of TGC Orange Creamsicle a couple days ago. Really excited to see this one grow out!
There doesn't seem to be much info on this particular coral. Anyone have a decent sized colony of it?
What kind of PAR do you keep it at?
Here it is under "daylight" spectrum.
Crappy cell phone pic of course...

I've never heard of it. @Empire do you have any of these in your vast collection?
 
“That's awesome! How much PAR do you keep that under? T5's?”

lots of par (400+) T5 and led (AI) combo & near top of the tank. Started off as a frag smaller than yours 3 years ago- this is about 9mos in. The cremsicle & the TGC Pink Cadillac have easily been my best acro growers.

keep ours at 350+ par
just enough flow to not nuke the flesh off the skeleton :p
 
Our TGC Creamsicle is in the middle. Started out as a slow grower for a few year then took off once we started to does kalkwasser. Par is around 350 with radions gen 4 and t-5s with heavy flow.

This was in my friends tank that he is breaking down

I should probably take some better pics of these for him

This is 10 months of growth under around 500 par, halides and kessils. Dont mind the ole hair algae.

It took a while to really even start to grow, I didnt see much growth for the first 6 months.
