Now you guys are really freaking me out! I've got some GSP coming this week, I thought it was nice, like lawn for your rock.....lol

 

[lpdk91]

They are nice but grow likw weed. I pick my once a month and end up throwing some away.

 

[Bifferwine]

Yeah lawn for your rock... And then it covers and smothers all your prize roses!

I like GSP,isolate them on the sand bed.

 

[Melonbob]

Yeah, I was thinking of laying one piece or rock down, isolated like an island, and putting it there.........

you can control the spread of it with a nicely placed shot of Joes Juice. In the past, I have picked a "line of demarkation", where I do not want the GSP to spread past and every three weeks or so, I would nuke the line with Joe's juice and it keeps the growth back while not harming the main colony

WTF is Joe's Juice? lol

It is for killing aptesia and works great your lfs will have it.

Do you just squirt it on the exterior of the colony?

I shut off return pumps and powerheads so there is no current to accidentially carry "The Juice" onto desirable corals and suck up a bit into the syringe that comes in the box. I put it along the base of the coral where it is spreading and it withers about 2cm worth of GSP, which is about a full width of the coral. It takes a few weeks to grow back. I like to do it when there is about 2 inches left of rock before it gets to the desired coral. That way, it can be kept and controlled.

Add it slowly, as it tends to come out fast and smear all over the place
