Time for a trim maybe lol. My Ruby Ribbon is getting out of hand. Time for a cut back.

My Terra Red is around the same size. Nice and big

ORA mint chip pavona, about the size of a football now. Really needs a trimming.

I trimmed 99% of my coral about 4 months ago when I had to tear the tank down to have new floor put in.

Threw away about 40 heads of frogspawn, a huge chunk of green slimer(what some would call a mini colony lol), huge chunk of BC shades of fall, etc, etc.

I think I may have thrown away several hundred dollars in corals, but the closest LFS is a 3 hour drive one way, and I know no one near me that reefs.

Never a good feeling when you need to throw stuff away. Have had a similar experience with my current panel change. Lost a bunch of coral unfortunately

I removed my tri color over a year ago. It was a very fast grower.
Its comming back as you can never get it all unless you remove the rock its on.
Currently this wild stag is my largest at over 10" diameter.
You can see the tri color upper left under the surf and turf.

Not the biggest colony I’ve ever had, but definitely got the most satisfaction out of this one. It was about 8” across at its widest point when I broke down the tank
