Hi there. In a few months into this hobby. Currently having a bad algae outbreak and a super high nitrate problem. I've had my lps for over 2 months now. How fast should they be growing. I'm not noticing any big differences. They're all colorful, eating etc. Just can't notice growth. Should I be noticing growth at this point? I have 2 favia, 1 pocillopora, and 2 chalices (about 1 week old) . Also have a 3 month old pavona that died about 2 months ago but is significantly (atleast to me) coming back and gaining it's green colors.
 
those aren’t real fast growers and it sounds like your tank is awful young and still probably unstable.. what are your parameters?
