branching forgspawn

[aarone]

When frogspawn makes a new branch, does the skeleton start dividing? I think my frogspawn is splitting into a new branch.

Yes.

There are basically two ways in which corals reproduce naturally. Either releasing sperm and eggs, or by splitting.

Sorry for the blurry night shot, was holding flashlight in one hand and digi in the other, My frog is doing just what your talking about now.

 

[aarone]

mine is not that dramatic, but it is starting to show signs in the fleshy area of a split.

Mine just split. but mine also has 5 "little baby frogs" around its base now too. So I guess it is reproducing more than one way.

Mine just grows another head from the base of the fleshy area.

how many watts would i need to put a frogspawn in my 12 gallon?

 

[aarone]

I have 130 in my 28. I would suggest about 100w so you would be safe keeping SOME other LPS.

I have 2x36W pc and mine seems to be doing wonderfully. I would however suggest the highest you can get. 100W like aarone said would be a good idea, I'd trust him over me any day, he's been in it longer than me.
BTW guys, if I have 2x36W does that mean that I have 72W? Stupid question, but I was wondering.

actually nick...I hear that you should always take about 10 watts off the power of your bulbs...not sure what for but kip said something like that in a thread.
Also to ensure a good thriving Frogspawn, keep your calcium and magnesium in check....well, good water quality in general is needed for any reef set up.
