Montipora undata grow out competition

[mgilger]

I have started to have some good growth in the last week the frag has grown twice it's size. it is now about a 1/2 inch frag. it now is sitting about 8 inches under LEDS, and right in the flow of the mp10. Here is a picture. I am shocked that it is still a live as this was my first attempt at SPS corals.

Moved mine yesterday up to the middle of the tank. I also changed the flow since it was killing my Xenia. It looks like it is doing better this way, but I noticed today that my salinity has dropped to 1.22.

Mine is doing well. I'm pretty sure it's hit the plug on all sides and it's getting nice and bumpy.

 

[Wicked Color]

WoW yaten looks like a front runner!

 

[Zooid]

Yep that one looks like it's growing nice.

No doubt there, I'll ask but understand if you dont answer, what are feeding?
I think part of my issue is the tank is running a tad on the warm side

 

[Yaten13]

Flakes (ground up) 1-2 times a day, and a chunk of my special suprise (mixed phytoplankton, zooplankton, bloodworms, mysis, brine shrimp). I don't really ever target feed, just thaw a chunk and drop it in, and it seems to make everyone happy. Also I probably have high DOC, but undetectable nitrates because I underskim, but have a large refugium for uptake. It seems to make my softies happy.

 

[projectx]

Yea I have a similar concoction that I do target feed with, Its looking good, nice job
Thanks for divulging your secret lol
