Ric has not grown?

[Dave E]

The question I have is that in May i got a ric and placed in my tank at different levels over several weeks and it is still the same size as when i got it.Any body have any idea,everything else grows like crazy,but the ric just sets and has not done anything.Plesase any idea would be helpful.

I have had it low in the tank,high in the tank,shaded under a over hang,etc.I have placed it in med to high flow,even tried in very low flow it does not change.


Calk,alk,ph.mag are ever good.

I just started a ric devoted tank and I have been adding the two part calcium and alk and I seriously think that the calcium has supersized my rics. The rics I got were mostly frags, all are healed now and starting to split and forming two mouths.

Try feeding it cyclopeeze and small pieces of mysis.
