Efflo/Soli--From baby to monster

Impressive soli!! It had to be hard to chop it down to fit in a smaller tank.

When I first got it as a wild colony about 10 years ago. It was small maybe 4" around.

When it got hit with a lot of flow from the top it really umbrella shaped downward

Max size I let it get was around 22 x 24"

Wow, that is quite a colony you have there!

How cool is that. An update to this thread after 4 years and it still looks great. Well done. Awesome piece.

thanks..........I sold the main colony a few years ago and kept some pieces to grow out again.

Those pics were meant to post on Chicago's thread. I was going to link this old thread to show pictures, but I forgot to move over back to his thread.

Does this mean that if I want the typical straight out shape, that the flow needs to be more level with horizontal? And if the flow is from low to high, it will grow upwards? Very curious as mine stuff is small and I can potentially "steer" the growth pattern. Thanks!

Also, i read above in this thread that you were using halos, but I swear you have led's now? The post was a few years old . Did you notice a color change with the led's? (On the efflo)
