Seriously, it's now about 1.5", which took more than a year...

I have a pink with green rim Millie that has encrusted maybe half a inch in 2 years. That half an inch was in the last two months since I moved it. Would love to see a branch grow out of it. It is just a blob right now.

Oh Brad, you'll love this. This would look great in your tank (front page of Reefbuilders right now).

lol those do look like mushrooms, I hate my disks, I broke them up though so now they look less like disk and more like rock. still ugly though. why dont more places just mount them to rubble?

I do mount my frags on plugs, not because I like them, but they are easier to manage as I allow them to settle and grow out a bit before I sell them.

Plus, plugs are easier to stick into racks so that they don't get blown around as much, as I do have higher flow in my tank, and I don't have a dedicated frag tank.

If I stick the frags on rubble, then they get tossed around so much that I lose them. So they are not great, but sometimes necessary. And people can always remove them as they please.

I agree completely with this, plugs are awesome for frag systems and selling. I'm just saying that once I buy the frag and it's going into the display, the plug is not :)
I would not use anything but plugs for a frag system/grow out tank.
