Well, actually, it was slow to start. Here it is from last Apr, just barely covering the plug.


And this is from Oct, barely 2 months ago.


As you can see, it has pretty well doubled in size in just the last 2 months. And the color is much better now. So it definitely likes something in my tank.

That is impressive. I can't believe how fast that has grown. Mine has just started to grow noticeably faster. I hope it takes off like yours

What happens when a Setosa meets a Red Planet?


Who wins? I am OK if they just put up a border between them, but if one starts killing the other, then I will have to do something. I had to lay down an epoxy strip to stop my Sunset Monti from killing a neighbor SPS. Is that necessary again in this case, too?

Well with my experience the red planet usually wins. Just this week one of my montis grew to close to the red planet and it killed about a 1/4" circle of my monti.

Thanks, Doug. Am happy with the growth, but not so much with where I placed some of my corals.
