see how the gsp is growing on top of and all around the kenya tree coral. its neat now and i know this will cause problems later but i plan on removing all the coral from this rock in 2 months. and i love my sailfin tang

 

i know its not coral but i lt is progress. lol

 

Those are some cool growth pics.

 

It is good to see everything flourishing. If I may ask, tell me all your bulbs and exactly what they are. The reason I am asking is because my Toadstool under regular bulbs looked like this;


Then after some time under T5s it looked like this; Left side of tank;


After about 8 mos. of it not doing well I took it out and put in my Biocube under standard compacts and it now looks like this;


So I am asking those whose Toadstools look good what lights they use. Thanks.

 

I have T5s and mine is at the very bottom of my tank. It's doing good granted it's just a baby and only about 1.5" across.
