Plate Coral Growth

[rad1687]

I got this little nub smaller than a nickel, here is a photo from December 20, 2010

and here it is May 18, 2011

It went from less than an inch across to 6 inches in 5 months!

Ah, quit bragging !

Actually that is pretty impressive.

 

[greech]

Nice! Did you feed it much during that time?

 

[rad1687]

A small piece of shrimp every other week or so, and spot feed zooplankton once a week

That's great growth for a plate. Keep doing whatever it is that you're doing.

Wow, great growth, especially considering feeding every week or other week isn't really that much!

Wow! What are your params? I have to adjust my tank to match yours. Great job.

I always wanted one but I heard they are pretty aggressive and tend to move around a lot.
Is that true?

I have three and they hardly move at all.

You could almost sit and watch that thing grow!

So what is your secret?

 

[rad1687]

No secrets! Mine is not aggressive at all and has touched my zoas with no problems. Some are movers, but mine hasn't moved at all. I have been dosing AquaVitro Fuel, Mydor all in one, and keeping up with weekly water changes!

That's sweet growth
