Wow.. I hope you did not pay a pretty penny for that.

Size doesn’t really matter lol. Mine encrusted out before sending up shoots so it shouldn’t make too much of a difference

Depends on the price. I hope he got it for a steal. Either way, I will never pay for single polyp frag.

do you have a pic of it's original size before the 1.5 month growth or did you mean 1.5 years?must have been a huge frag/mini colony to be that size now.

I qouted the photo that was 1.5 months before hand. The frag I bought about a year and a half ago was a 3/4" single branch.

Anyone grow under halides with success, toggling getting a frag but dont want to cook it

This coral is PAR hungry. You will not have an issue. The spectrum of the bulb however will depict the coloring. I seen several under MH's in a different thread as well.

took these yesterday with only my leds on. This is about 2 years of growth after multiple fraggings and a small colony sold from it. Started with a small 3/4 inch frag. Give this some time to grow before fragging imo!

In my opinion ans. is YES and NO. Is Pro and Cons.
I donate a mini colony (grow under 400W Radium M.H.) to a member , soon he put in his tank , looks 300% dif. (he got Ecotech Radion G4 ) adjust to "Disco" light. NOT sure if i can grow that Colony that fast and healthy under LEDs. W.D. love M.H. par, i never bleach one , i got 70 frags and 8-9 mini colony, i decide to buy 2 Ecotech Radion G4 , just to enjoy of dif. look , may help in color , i run LEDs same time with M.H. before and after, to early to see the dif. compare to only M.H. Water flow is critical , low water flow on W.D. grow make it like Bamboo Sticks , high flow make it like crown, that my "secret" why i can frag so much and fast.

I think dip is anther issue , some frags not even feel , some stay frag for ever, but YES we have to dip , no matter what.

This is my Walt Disney. One of my favorite corals in my tank right now. This picture is under all daylights which is 8 bulb T5 and 2 reefbrites. Photo is taken with an iPhone X so not the best quality.
