Millepora slowest growing SPS?

Dixiedog. Your coral in the second photo shows no sign of growth tips and very little PE. My guess is that it needs some more flow, some tips cut off, and possibly a move to a new location.

You know, I had forgotten how much PE that thing had when I got it! It has looked this way for a looong time. I guess the PE went away really slowly as it colored up and I just didn't notice.

I moved it about two months ago to the top of the tank, about 9" out from the MP10. It lost a lot of encrustation in the move.

Think I should trim some tips now, or wait til it encrusts a little?

(I guess this is on topic)


EDIT: and what's up with the PE?? Where'd it go???

I feel your MH photo period is rather short. You should ramp it up over the next few months to 6 hrs minimum
