None of my sps seem to encrust or grow vertically too much in the time I have had them. Only one of my monti frags shows any sort of white growth...

[IMG] not sure that will help.

Yeah, the digitata was doing well but has since stopped growing. Same with everything else, including the red encrusting one. My tank seems to grow...
What is ULNS an acronym for?
