I think TomR has a full back wall with gsp.Looks really good.

how do you guys get your gap to spread so fast? I have a big colony in my tank but its stayed the same for over a year and hasn't grown that much. Are there any specific conditions that they like? I thought they are suppose to be really easy to grow..

My secret back then, besides a healthy tank was a 250w Iwasaki 65k halide, plus a couple reg actinics. Nothing else. It grew like a weed. I kept it to the main rock it came from and the glass overflows, where it was easily cut for sale or control.

Thx guys to show ur experience. Back glass full of GSP looks amazing but the problems it has seem to weigh more than the pros. I think GSP grows much faster when it encrusted on something.

Same here. I've got a very healthy tank where most corals thrive but can't seem to really get GSP to take off. Same with Zoas, daisy or glove polyps and one or two more. Maybe it is something I'm not feeding or possibly a nutrient that another coral is out-competing them for.

Consider yourself lucky:lol:

mine has only really taken off on the back of the tank over the past few months, noticed significant growth. My tank hasn't been "healthy" and thriving per se, but the GSP seems to like the conditions. Trying to get back into better maintenance and will see if that changes things.

Didn't I get my GSP frags from you back in the summer? Maybe it's the particular variety you have that is easily controlled. You could make millions! :D

You did! if you want to try some more with a bigger frag, let me know, I'll break it off the back wall...lol:lol:
