    I thought GSP looked so cool when I first saw it, I regret adding it. I do like how it looks though - just not how it spreads.

    Wise!

    Their attraction fades, unless you want them in a tank you never intend to change. Sure I have had that type of tank and loved it. When I wanted to go a different direction with the tank the change was made difficult secondary to the presence of Xenia and GSP. I do love to see the pulsing action of a large mass of Xenia but in others tanks. GSP does nothing for me now. Who knows I might say the same about Millepora some day. o_O

    I have a nice patch of neon green GSP for you bro if you change your mind. I've loved this coral since I first saw it. My wife bought me a rock with a small piece and years later I still love it. If it starts going in a direction I don't like I literally use a razor and peel it off and frag it. 20150215_131443.jpg

    DSC, I'll take the fire & ice and you can keep the GSP! Funny... I just took out and SCRUBBED all my LR. Thought I gave away any piece that had GSP on it and low and behold I have a piece starting to spread on a piece of LR. And its a base rock in the most difficult spot to get to of course. I had that stuff and Xenia in my 75 and it was nice for about two months.. Here's a few pics of new lights (not my choice of bulbs, will be changed) and frogspawn.

    LOL I put her on a healthy diet. She lost 100lbs of LR!
    I don't think SPS will survive until I at the very least upgrade the bulbs. I'll slowly get there though in time.
