Not a great pic but here's my frag. Just recently started taking off for me.

Thanks, I've had it for just about a year. Good luck with your frag, very nice Millie.

That's pretty quick to go from a frag to that, great work. I am excited, paying for my order on Tuesday when they open up, got 9 pieces of LPS that the GF liked, and I have wanted to get this piece for awhile, so it was a fun excuse, I am getting these for YOU, I am just getting this one thing because it's from the same place.
 
I just stumbled upon this thread. This was mine till I lost it in a tank transfer about 6 months ago :(

No worries Mike I still have my Frag I bought off you last year. When it gets to a good size I will definitely hook you up with a frag. I didn't know you lost your colony.
 
Here are a few shots of mine. Grown out from a small two branch frag when Will (aquasd) first got it in. Have it up really high under 8x48 t5 Sunpower fixture. Almost pulled the trigger on CC Heaven and Hell, but after talking with Brett, I thought they might be too similar, AND a local member ended up buying a frag of it.

6 years later...any chance you’re still going with this piece?
 
Unfortunately I broke down the tank about 4 years ago when we moved. Will (Aquasd) bought my colony. Just getting back in the hobby and will definitely have this milli in my tank again.
 
Mine started from 1inch stub that was dormant for 3 months. I almost gave up but in about a month every little “finger” started pushing its way out. Finally have some action! My pink Mille in the tank grows like crazy and has been fraged once. I don’t know why the rainbow is so slow

How much flow do you guys keep yours in? Such as medium, high, directly in-front of a powerhead?
 
Pretty close (like a foot) away from a 250 gyre at 80% for me. I think mine would be less bushy if it was in a different spot in the tank.

Thank you! Do you have it on random at 80% ? I’m trying to improve my flow in my tank. I think that’s my issue why some of my acros aren’t growing well.

One side slowly ramps up to 80, then constant for several minutes, then it switches to the other side. I don't remember the exact settings. I set it that way a year or so ago, and then never messed with it again.

Interesting! Thank you!
