[Namyar]

Am I doing something wrong my coral dont seem to grow very quick if even at all. They all seem to be doing well.

What corals do you have?

What lights do you have?

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

Can you give us an idea of the growth rates?
How long has the aquarium been running...... 6 months?

 

[Namyar]

Green ultra candy, yuma, Colt, kenya tree, xenia, orange cap, Frog spawn.

Lights florecent antic come on first.

yes it hase been about 6 months.

maybe I am expecting to much to soon

(green ultra) candy = caulastrea, this coral will accept feeding at night.

I don't have any yuma but believe yuma will accept cyclopeeze and other small foods.

I noticed my xenia growing faster when I dosed with DT's phytoplankton.

A lot of corals in my opinion need a settling in period, before they start growing.

Are you sure they haven't been growing so slowly that you just haven't noticed?

 

[Namyar]

They may have grown very slow
