mogurnda November 17, 2005 Share November 17, 2005 I got a few frags of this acro from Micheal before he left. I think this is the one some people refer to as the "weed staghorn." Many other frags croaked during the derbesia plague, but this guy held on. Once things settled, it has started to take off. Finally got a few minutes to take the most recent pic a few nights ago. Early August, it's just a little green nub: Late September, it's coloring up and getting branchy: This week (mid-November), looking like a small colony: It will be interesting to see how it grows from here.

mogurnda November 17, 2005 Author Share November 17, 2005 That's a great idea. Now that I think about it, I should have titled the thread differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flowerseller November 20, 2005 Share November 20, 2005 In a round about way he was saying that I get the first frag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribbean Jake November 20, 2005 Share November 20, 2005 Dave Nice pictures. I also got one piece from Michael back in April/May 05 nad it is slow growing. not as nice and big as yours but bulkier on my tank. Perhaps the lights play a role.

I would not be at all surprised if the lights made a difference. I am very happy with the growth from the XMs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davelin315 November 22, 2005 Share November 22, 2005 Light and flow both will make a difference in the growth patterns of sps corals. I can't remember if it's low flow thinner pieces or high flow thinner pieces though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishface November 22, 2005 Share November 22, 2005 I recall reading that within the same species, the heavier flow promote a denser, thicker morph. Lower flow, the opposite. Now that I won the $100,000 question, where can I get one? FF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
