I'm not worried, though I'd feel better if there was growth down to the plug. I do feel a little sorry for all the wittle bitty frags in Brad's tank. They're so cute, though! Pardon me mam but are you referring to the micro nano colonies its a perception thing, the moon looks small from my back yard as an example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rbusta Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 I was rushing into things and lost mine too. Was changing too many variables - next time! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoralReefTankers Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Starting to encrust the super glue and maybe 1/16"ish of growth. I love how fuzzy these are! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicyclebill Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I love that I appear to be the only one here that still has the official blue plastic ruler that Kim handed out during one of these competitions several years back Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What_The_Frag Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Here's my update photo for June. I'm getting some good color, PE and it's encrusting....despite the rusty magnets that tried to assassinate many of my acros recently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obrien.david.j Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 OBrien CNC Superman, Check-in: June 7 Moved frag onto rack to get better photo with ruler, so Holly wouldn't make fun of me. Frag doesn't like current blowing right on it apparently, all closed up. But here's the photo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G928P using Tapatalk You actually have a great amount of new growth, even if you use the magic eraser. I understand that your acros usually die so actual growth may be tough to discern given your level , but its there, trust. Nice! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gil&Fin Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Okay, okay. I may have taken a few liberties with photoshop. I was trying to mimic Brad's sale threads, but I should know better than to try to imitate a master photoshopper like Brad. Here is my real entry for this month. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuncrestReef Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 The only new growth I see on my frag is unfortunately some algae. It just started a couple days ago, and I am having more algae elsewhere in my tank over the past several weeks. I probably need to work harder on lowering nutrients. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bicyclebill Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Well mine is now but an encrusted 1/4" stub. I bumped it and snapped it off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
