do you have a picture of it? I think I have one, but mine doesn't grow. I wonder if I'm doing wrong. If you're ever headed south--I'm in Cedar--I'd be interested in a frag-mine is really little.

Kenya do not do well in all tanks. Of course I say that about every coral that's not doing well... 
Where is the Kenya located in your tank? If it is downstream of another coral, it may be inhibited by that corals chemicals. Do you have either a skimmer or periodically use activated carbon? These things clean the water so that more kinds of coral can grow. Kenya, in good conditions, is self propagating.

it sits on the top of a rock that sits in front of a powerhead, so it gets fair water flow. do I need to move it? does it need better light - cheapo 18" strip lights. yuck. ------------- Randy in Cedar City 12 Gallon Nano Bioballs 1 Damsel 1 Kenya Tree Coral Hidden mushroom |

| Ya, it will probably need better light. Depending on how close you have it to the top of the tank. |

I go down to Doc's in St George. It's not terribly far away, though I'll never understand why everything in that town closes at 7:00pm. Tracey does a great job down there and is going to end up with a very impressive little store. There's one store here in Cedar, but she's got about 3 tanks worth of SW stuff, so not much to build on there. ------------- Randy in Cedar City 12 Gallon Nano Bioballs 1 Damsel 1 Kenya Tree Coral Hidden mushroom |
