its friday Aug 20th my whole family has tanks so if i do bring some stuff up there will be plenty of places to put them. Um its a decent growner I would say one new eye a month or a about 1/8-1/4" of new grown a month in perfect conditions as the frags get bigger the growth will increase make sure it always has some thing to plate across of the growth will slow down significantly ( ie a free standing over hang)
Cool cool. Well that seems pretty fast to me! Ahhh that makes sense. They have to build a stronger skeleton if they aren't.

You say grafted, so that is actually a combination of two corals?

yup force grafting of either the extact same spieces ( very hard to do) or intoduce a different type of coral like Pocillopora damicornis to morph the coral proteins

Sweet set up, what Halide bulbs are you using to get so much color? I rarely see that kind of color out of MH lights.
