Frogspawn fully extended??

[lmm1967]

Never seems to extend more than what it is in the photo - color seems great but I'm just not sure if it should be more extended than this. Can't seem to find another example in any LFS so I don't have much to compare it to.

Video link at bottom shows better than the photo.

Looks happy to me.

Not sure, but could it be that it's a different species of frogspawn? You may be thinking of the branching form.

Thanks Luke - the branching species do seem to extend more than this one and that's why I'm having a hard time being sure it's OK with lighting and flow.

the skeleton structure showing indicates that either it's cut not too long ago or it's stressed.

Doesnt look fully extended to me. How long you had it?

 

[hzheng33]

yup, the fact that it has skeletal structure showing indicates some tissue recession. so, I wouldn't say your frogspawn is out of the woods yet

Its a a wall frogspawn and its in WAAAAAY to much current. Just move it somewhere where it can just kinda sway around a bit and it will triple in size.

Thanks everyone. Had it a few weeks. Doesn't seem overly stressed but I'm still pretty new.

I moved it back in closer to the rocks where it's a little more protected. I had just bumped him prior to taking the pics. Normally not quit as much of the external structure near the arms is showing.

I have been wondering about the flow being to strong. I may have to go down to smaller pumps. Currently running 2 Jebao RW8 pumps anywhere from 40% - 70 % in this 60 gallon cube.

Turn the flow down or place it in a low flow area
