Good point, my red planet frags takes a hell of long time to encrust the plug but once it reaches the end of the plug it starts to grow like crazy.

Also not sure how much flow is in tank, maybe switch it up a bit and see what it does.

Brad had mentioned temperature in relations to metabolism and growth rate, I always kept my at 24 degrees with a degree of variation during the night, maybe bump the temp up a bit.....

Do you feed your tank any coral food? Whats your fish count?

Yea maybe turn the temp up 1-2 degrees. I've got lots of flow 3 power head and the return in a 35g not sure what the total return flow rate is, probably about 500+/- and 3 PH's at 250gph each so flows not an issue there. As for food I just feed reef roids not sure what else too feed :P

Btw anyone running the tunze 9002 skimmer, do the airline mod, i did it this Friday passed and pulled out in three days what i would in like 2 weeks and its thick
