    I have to agree with Corailline. There's something special about watching a colony grow from a small frag versus buying the colony. It's more rewarding IMHO.
    And besides IME small frags adapt quicker and do better than bigger frags or small colonies.

    Yes growth,

    And I killed my Cali tort, my other torts are fine but the cali started a very slow tissue necrosis that I could not stop even after fragging it.

    The Oregon tort and Cali's are one of my favorites. I love the blue and green tones to it.

    My liked mod current and intense lighting, right up until the time it went down hill.

    Any idea why that happened? Mines in pretty intense lighting IMO (2" from surface)
