Good growth

[cody3819]

Any advice on getting the best growth possible out of red montis.

Sunlight... I have a bunch of pieces outside and they can grow up to an inch wider every month.

Inside my display tank I have a large 20"+ colony up at the top under leds and about every 2 months I have to trim it back a couple of inches to keep it from overshadowing neighboring colonies.

Just give them lots and lots of light and they will be happy to grow for you.

What about current? And thanks for your in put. Are you running MH?

Good flow and good light. T5 or halides

Well I have good flow and I'm running a ai prime. May not be t5 or halides but they are good.

Those ai leds are great lights I have 52s on a tank. I have montipora caps at 300 par growing like weeds. Keep phosphates low to give you the best growth.

Thanks, and the 52s are nice.... I love my prime.

I think monti caps will grow like weeds under candlelight. Those things are unstoppable.
