    Ty's tank suffered a small crash last month and I was able to save 2 small frags of the ORA Scripts acro and stick them in my tank. Today I discovered another tiny piece in his tank. I cut it off and now I will try to document its growth...hopefully. As you can see, it is tiny. The first pic is it on my fragging tweezers. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    I will be gone next week so here is the one month update. It has been knocked off several times and placed back in its spot. As you can see it has acclimated well and is happy with the location. It has grown on to the rock and gotten a little bigger too. Additionally, the little stick on the left side of the big rock has grown too.

    That's really good growth in a month. Polyp extension is great! Following along.

    Hiya,

    DANG! That's some growth. Wish my acro's would do so well.

    Thank you Kim. I am really having fun watching this. I wish I would have taken pictures of some of my other coral when I first got them.

    Time for another update. The little stick is doing well but look at the other stick growing off the side of the big rock in the first picture. It has been there the whole time but it's really starting to take off.[​IMG][​IMG]

    Hiya,

    Nice!!! For some reason, I get a little grown on my SPS's, but no polyp extension.

    Great growth John! How is the big birdnest from last month doing? Is it coloring up yet? My frags have healed the broken ends and are turning yellow on the tips.

    It looks good David. It is starting to color up nicely. I busted off a lot of the tips while transporting it home. I secured those to plugs, rocks, and discs. I now have Birdsnest frags all over my tank. On a different note, my other big colony of Birdsnest RTNd yesterday and last night. I lost about 75% of my colony unexpectedly.
