JF Homewrecker Frag growouts

What PAR are you aiming for?
 
Any other tips for more pink? Mine is only around 1.25", but still
 
Heres my piece.First pic is now and the pic on the right is when got it in Oct 2019. So been about a year. Not the fastest grower in my system and super hard to color up. Blasting with around 400 - 450 par.

On my frag, it's either PAR or spectrum that's bringing out the pink. I had the frag mounted on a rock where it was tilting forward a little. The front is completely green due to indirect lighting. But the back which is getting a direct hit from the lights is starting to get the pinks. Here's pics.

This is the front:

This is the backside:

Also, since this is a growth progress thread, the encrusted part has grown in just 5 weeks. Looks like it'll be a fast grower.
 
Definitely jealous of the growth most of you are getting. Tank is only 9months old at this point, so it was definitely a gamble putting acros in this soon.

I'll play, but I will likely forget to update. One of my frags... one month under 14k Phoenix Halide... not much growth, but the color is coming.

I wouldn’t worry @jda
I’m sure someone will remind you
 
Do you have any top down shots of that little thing

This is the closest to that request that I’ve got, I’ll try to get a better one soon

I thought you used radiums? Different tank?
Edit
Nevermind. Your build thread states Phoenix.

Yes, I have SE Radiums on the 16" LumenMax reflectors and m80 ballasts on a different tank. This tank and both of my frag tanks have the DE 14k Phoenix. If you are thinking about buying a Halide for your tank, either would be good choices... just get the correct ballasts. :)
 
Two of mine both pics need updated these are about a month old but I can’t find my good phone lens, I lost the mini colony I had growing in the fire.
