gsp thread.. lets see some pics!

[lazycouch]

just trying to see the beauty some gsp can bring to a tank! would be glad to see some of your gsp walls, figures, rocks, anything! ESPECIALLY BRANCHING GSP

i recently tried growing my new 1x1 frag on a rock branch but didn’t go so well.. so i glued it on the wall and it seems much happier! can wait for what’s to come.

anyway, lets see some GSP!!

(pics are not mine) branching gsp is @sicceus
floor gsp is @Reefer Reboot i found on a previous theead

Here’s my tiny bit. The frag plug is so I can frag and sell it to keep it under control

It's the only coral that doesn't do well in my tank. Every time I place a coral order, I get a bit of GSP. Everything but the GSP survives.

lol ;Hilarious... Hi @lazycouch. Thanks for the compliment but I have to admit this did not happen by design. Nope, life stepped in and decided throw a curve ball at me including my plans for this tank. It is now very "Darwinistic", the strongest survives. As the saying goes, "When life gives you lemons...." So now I'm just going to go with it and see what can be created. What started off as a little quarter sized spot of GSP has turned into this uncontrollable monstrosity, er, "thing of beauty". It has now completely covered the bottom, grows up the side and front (which means constant trimming) and has taken over the rocks on the right side sending the RFA's running for the hills. Since my wife only cares about the fish (always wants more;Stop), I'm just going to let this tank be more of a FWLC (Fish with limited coral) tank and let it eventually cover the tank. (I can always dream of the "next" tank.;Yawn) Your timing couldn't have been better as I spent the day you posted this thread doing a massive trim back of all the over grown weed GSP. Instead of just tossing it like usual, I decided to speed up the process by attaching to the back wall with a little twist. (Warning, cliffhanger!) IF it works out I'll post pictures for you. Right now it just looks like strips of fruit roll-up glued to some acrylic.

wow! that’s some crazy stuff. is it hard to control or is it only if you slack off a bit? can’t wait for my 1x1 to start spreading!

Only thing I can say is make sure it’s somewhere you can control it like the glass or on its own little island and you will be fine
