Here is my Efflo Frag. It was growing VERY fast. Usually Efflo's grow slow, but this was grew very quick! It grew fast wherever you put it. Usually faster under medium flow. I lost this piece during my ROWA tryouts. I truly miss it.

This corals needs adequate current to prevent sediment in the middle of the cup. Leaving the sediment for some days in the cup can damage the whole coral with tissue lost staring from this point.
