New montipora spongodes

luxauterna · Mar 21, 2014

eklapp , being in wisconsin, have you heard of this spongode being called the Hodag Monti around you?

My buddy that traded me the frag uses some kind of Reef radiance LEDs and his colony also grows fast and looks great!

Thank you! Hodag must be a Rhinelander thing?

Very nice Eklapp. What is the lighting?

Here's what mine looked like up in the top-right corner. Sadly it grew too much, too fast, and i couldn't give away the frags fast enough so I sold the whole thing to reclaim some real estate...

Real cool coral .
I like its growth pattern.
It grows very fast for me also under my t 5 vho combo

Yah, I am having same problem as EricTheRed. Spending too much time trimming and fragging. It is in my overflow now. I am gonna be selling it to make room for more acros. Mine is under LEDs by the way. It was bulletproof in my tank. Survived my big tank crash that killed every other SPS. Most recent pic of mine.

Mine is just annoying and taking up real estate! It needs to grow upwards and stop basing out. Its to the right in the picture below.

luxauterna · Mar 23, 2014

ReeferEric, you think flow has something to do with it basing out more than growing vertically?

@luxauterna I use two Hydra HD LED's !!
I have a nice Bonsai Tree that I have been growing now for over 2 years and have a-course fragging off of it. What I did was I had Aquarocks make me this custom one of a kind Bonsai Tree and then I glued about 4 to 5 frags on this tree and this how it has turned out 2 years later. A course i have been fragging off of it. If you're interested in 1'' frags, PM me I think i have 4 or 5 ready to go..
