    confused....

    my kenya started out as a frag and has grown quite large. it is near the top of the tank and gets plenty of light. it seems happy as can be but drops babies everywhere like weeds. So do they also do that when happy or just when survival mode kicks in as stated in an earlier post in this thread

    Mine seems to be doing the same thing :confused: But I'm now trimming it like a garden tree and pulling out those that aren't where I want them ;) Sort of like tending your garden, seems to be working so far. 8)

    You can now see mine in my DT videos- videos are all short, Kenya tree is getting near volleyball size when the whole thing extends.

    MIne is very lagre now, and fraggs often.

    Many people (I still like mine), consider these a nuisance coral, and won't have them.
    It was my first, along with my encrusting gorogoneam- which is considered another huisance coral!
    As are discoma shrums- yep, got LOTS of those too! LOL
