Get a 150w metal halide, and they will grow for you.

What are your water parameters, ca, alk etc. My gsp grow like weeds even when I had them under pc lighting.

I have gsp under VHO and it grows well. Time for new bulbs? not enough flow, mine likes a pretty good flow. Feeding any coral foods?

They grow like weeds with good water quality and decent lighting. It might be your PC wattage that is slowing your growth but I don't know how much you really want to upgrade on a 25g. It just be how it is. I used to have a 45g with on 250MH and they grew pretty well.

The pic is from the corner of my 120g. Took about a year to get this growth from a small frag.
