    I'd say it's good growth, better than good actually. Excellent work with that coral :)

    I decided to up the lighting from 7 hours to 8 hours (Metal halide 20k Radium), growth has increased but loosing some of the green to a little of the base and lightening of green over all. Growth however did make a jump, so growth vs color.

    April 1st-April 20th. Most growth is in areas that where fragged like the right side next to the bubble algae in the image.
