Wanted to post some progress photos to get opinions on my acro growth. Is it much less than should be expected? About average?

At this point I’m happy with my lights but haven’t completely ruled out adding some supplemental T5s, more so to help with shadowing. This will be more likely as I add more acros around the tank.

I currently run a single XR15 G5 Pro over a 23.5x12.75 display. I run AB+ at 89% but have been bumping about 1% every week or two.

October 9th, couple weeks after getting it:

This one is much less noticeable (way less time) but you can see a little growth at the base and at the tips

Just to expand on my thoughts, I am not jumping immediately to adding T5s mostly due to form factor and lighting option….of course added cost is always a factor too.

My tank is smaller and I currently use the RMS mount. A hanging kit isn’t practical for me and I’d prefer not to add extra furniture and keep extra hardware to a minimum.
