Brownout special to beauty

[ros_sco]

I picked up a maricultured mille a while back at the LFS that was neglected and stn'ing. It was brown as could be. I actually couldn't tell it was a mille either. I brought it home and fragged the good parts. Here is the evolution of the largest frag.

Very nice pick up/save. I have the same or similar milli, it grows like crazy and looks awesome. Two combos that I like.

Thanks for all the kind words! Yeah, was growing on the substrate, it started encrusting over the top of the sand to make it's base larger. My tank is so crowded there was no room for it on the rockwork and the bottom started getting shaded so I sold most of the colony and now have a smaller colony about like the 12-9 photo in my frag tank. Still looks good though.

Hard to believe that was the same corral in the first picture. Wow what a change. Very nice piece you have now.

There are so many threads on here about people with problems it's nice to see a success story once in a while.

Great transformation,I am sure it must have given you immense satisfaction seeing it grow and color up.
What lights and parameters do you maintain.
