    hey cheryl, have you ever messed with placing the RP in some different flow areas to see how differently it grows?
    My friend has one in SUPER high flow and its hard to frag because the branches are so close together! I would suspect that in low flow it would get more spaced out and the branches would be thinner?

    I got frags placed all over the tank. The thing that makes the most difference is the age of the bulb, new bulb tabling, aging bulb upward branching growth. I like the tabling pattern but it tends to loose that intense green and red in the vertical growth pattern. I think it probably get the most flow of anything in the tank. I know if it's getting too much because it show less PE, mod flow seems to be this ones preference.

    Would love to be able to test that theory with a mp20 though. :)
