Wait there's fast-growing corals? I'm kidding haha I'm a newb, so I'm still learning a lot. But my favorite type would be the colt coral. That thing has detached like four times trying to colonize my nano!! Slow, I'd say acan coral. Those guys are really cool.

Any type of birdsnest in my tank seems to grow really fast.

2'nd would be the ORA Joe the Coral

Slowest is my Turbinera (scroll coral) because it's one of my favorites of course.

I can't grow millepora, do those count as slow growers if they don't grow at all? LOL

Yes, yes it does. I swear that neither the ASD Rainbow or Purple Monster have grown since I've got them. Disappointing really.

Agree with the PM but if you're ever lucky to find the Eddie's PM it is glacial compared to the Tyree PM.

If that's the case I'm not sure the Eddies ever grows. I think this things moves backwards sometimes.

Mine might have grown a millimeter in a year, I kid you not. Didn't even really encrust, either. I find they usually do one or the other...

 

[bknapp]

The PM I've got (unsure of any lineage) has encrusted down the plug and almost onto the rock in maybe five months.

Fastest for me is hollywood stunner and GSP.

Slowest is Candy Apple Red zoa...6 months and still at 2 polyps
