Looks good, hopefully it works out!! I got a toadstool from Otty and hated it. It started to die. I was going to give it away but in the past 4 days since I've been running 1 MH for 2 hours it has done a 180. I think I'll give it a few months after seeing your pics!

Nice pics and tank. I have just recently got one about 1-2 inches big, it actually 2 on one frag (score) so we'll see. Hopefully it grows fast like yours. | |

I have chopped out several before. But this one is so pretty do not have heart to.
Am going to try and let it stay around as long as I can. It is in a good location to let grow.
Unfortunately "shades" a number of other corals, some of which I may have to move elsewhere. | |
