Mertensii

Thought I'd post a couple quick pics of a mertensii I've had for several months. It's doubled in size, if not more than that.

I noticed with my mertensii that they don't so much grow in the first few months as re-inflate with the water that they lost during shipment.
Don't get me wrong, what you are seeing is a good thing, but once it is entirely re-inflated, the growth with slow quite a bit, so you don't have to worry about it eating your house quite yet.
