    Cali tort 2 months. I was sure this was going to be a really slow grower. Everyone says it grows faster than the Oregan tort, well it grows a lot faster. For a tort I am happy with it's growth.

    Thanks Dingo!

    The bulb saga continues. Finally I pick it up today. It is going to be a slow acclimation. But I will throw up some before and afters. :)

    It is Friday :)

    Since the RP is growing fast and branching it is harder to see the growth changes.

    In this image you can see the still green coloration of the base as well as the coral encrusting the rockwork.
