More encrusting and a little bit of growth I think

Sorry guys... been a crazy week. I'll post my results soon.

Ain't nothing going on with mine. It's even browning out a bit in some parts.

 

[Dorado]

I wish I had something exciting to report. Slightly more encrusting happening

 

[gofor100]

No growth for me. For those that can measure, what PAR are you keeping yours under (along with Nitrates/Phosphates)? Mine is under between 350-400 and my nitrates hover around 1-3 and phosphates around .03.

Thanks for posting everyone! Some of yours were way off from last time based on the ruler position. I don't think anyone's frag shrunk except those that broke so, I opted to use your number from last time in those cases. If there is any opposition to that let me know.

Sorry about the delay started a new job two weeks ago and things have been crazy. No real growth

I feel like mines been knocking on deaths door. I've moved it down into lower light. Here are photos to document it. I didn't see anything in the rules about moving it so hopefully this is not an issue.
Before

After; did my best to mount it level but looks like I rotated it unintentionally. I don't believe mine grew vertically at all so far so I'll get a measurement picture up and just start from that reading if that works for everyone.

Good call. I feel like mine is in too high of light too. I have to pull out my PAR meter and check things out then might move it as well.

I'm pretty sure I placed it up in the 500 range if my measurements were true when I set up my tank. I knew it was high but a bit surprised it hasn't really adapted at all.

Similar experience to Smite's. Mines also on death's door. A lot of reasons, alk spikes and light burn the most likely.

I lost a small part of it so a drive by snail/urchin scrape as well.

Still hanging out at 2.1ish

I think I’d move it, but no other spot tickles my fancy yet

 

[Dipan00]

Still hanging in there. Looks to be basing but no upward momentem yet.

Looks like your getting some nice color.

 

[bustayanky]

More encrusting, a lil better color.
I think 1 mm growth?

 

[gofor100]

Mine broke in half during some tank maintenance

Still alive but likely out of the contest.
