They like low to medium light and low flow. Mine has grown like a weed since I put it in about a year ago.

Mine balled up for a while just after I got it and I thought it was dying. After 1-2 weeks it opened up full and dropped 2 branches which are now growing like crazy. All 3 are doing fine.
Like DragonZim says, they don't seem to like alot of flow. Just enough to lazily rock them back and forth. The mom tree is mid way up the tank and babies are towards the bottom. I have 150W MH. Hope that helps.

yes, it does.
do you guys spot feed it? or just let it chill and grab what it needs from whatevers around?
i just got a frag like, 2 days ago so im just curious what i should do with it as far as feeding now. i think i have it in a decent spot.
thanks

they dont need to be fed. the only thing i'd add once in a blue moon is iodide. but u chng water often, then its not necessary.

I dont spot feed mine at all, but I suppose it may catch some when I put zooplankton in the tank every couple of days
