Question on Toadstool and Kenya

[MRRBW]

I will vouch for Kenya spreading like wildfire. I started with one stock and now have over 50. Mine have stuck towards the bottom of the tank so I don't mind too much. My GSP and xenia are not fast spreaders at all, actually have a hard time growing them. But I'm an anomaly I think as most tanks I've seen with them they are everywhere like a weed. Rubbed band or a mesh is a good technique to get it to attach.

Thanks for all the help and of course I have yellow GSP and Kenya in a 30 gallon sounds like I'm in for a little trouble down the road lol

If you're not familiar with the kenya trees I've had several grow more than eight inches in diameter and the anethelia will grow right on the glass of the tank.

Wow that takes up a lot of real estate in a small tank. I think I'm going to transfer some over to my 125, I don't have any corals in there at all so they would have plenty of room to grow a forest. lol

The only good thing about the items that take over a tank is taking dozens to the lfs for credit each time I go. I took a whole bag of pulsing zenia in last week.

How big do you let them get before you take them in?

 

[Harold Green]

An inch or two. The lfs pays a lot more if they are mounted on plugs so I keep some in my frag tank ready to trade in whenever I go.

I will have to try that thanks
