The green frog with pink tips seems to grow faster than any other Euphyllia I have.

The frag I got from fishmans frags in July is huge now, much bigger than the frogspawn that has been in there at least twice as long.

I like the pinky one with paler tips too.

Look stunning for movement in a tank [thumbup.gif]

OOps, almost forgot.....started dosing with the full prodibio reef range last week as well.
Will keep posted if I see any real drastic changes due to it, though the filter feeders really perked up with the reefbooster supplement so far

Cheers again peeps...these stars are brilliant scavengers, though i spot feed the serpents occasionally to ensure they get enough.
The yellow boxers are quite rare and I got this one through reef critters, just hope it gets a chance to settle in properly before the mystery wrasse sets his sights on him now til he regrows his claw.
