What should I do with this Green Slimer?

[bakbay]

The Green Slimer is my fav SPS btw. I had one that was growing out of the water as well and I had to reset my tank. lol

This is starting to piss me off......Jimbo getting angryyyy.

If this tip doesn't grow into multi-tips, I'm going over and snapping a few branches from yours and putting it in the same spot. haha.

lol - I got a very cool Green Slimer that I’ve revived from my friend’s tank. It’s getting 600 PAR and loving it! I just got a new toy today… TGIF buddy

I can frag you a piece to try? Serious

 

[Jimbo327]

Let's see how my frag does. I'm just curious what it would do.

 

[Jimbo327]

The cut tip has fully healed. I may need to poke it with a stick.

How is the frag attached? I had two in my tank for months that wouldn’t encrust, just got thicker. Once I removed them from the plug and attached with glue and epoxy they encrusted right over.

 

[Jimbo327]

It’s super glued on a stick rock, so it can’t really spread. It encrusted down into this rock.

It’s only been 1 week since the last photo, and I’m seeing what looks like new tips from the healed area.

Looks promising. Maybe it’ll finally grow.

And thanks for all the offers of a bigger green slimmer frag. But now I’m invested in seeing this one grow.

Treat it bad expose it to air and try to kill it. Drop kick it, spit on it and flip it off. Should take off like a weed after that.

Forgot to post an update. This was 2 days ago.

Bad photo…The tips are growing tho.

 

[lowbudget]

usually cutting the tip and when it heals it will branch out. it also likes to grown a nice base

 

[Bck2hobby]

do you have a pic of the piece you cut off?

 

[Jimbo327]

No, it kind of just crumbled when I cut the tip. That’s how little. Like 1/4”.

Late to the party here, but my suggestion would be not to mount it pointed up. Mount it laying down. It will grow up from three or four places at once that way, instead of just up from a single stalk.
