I picked up the green/purple tips one about a week ago but the rest have been growing from little frags for years. I know for some people they grow like weeds but in my tank they are relatively slow growers. Lighting is ATI blue+ and an actinic strip.

Let's see some other hammer gardens.
 
I have not had good fortune with hammers, but for lps in general they grow (branch) much better with broadcast feedings, “stealing” food from the fish ime.
I love your green with blue tip hammer. I want one someday.

Some amazing looking hammers! Curious if you have a favorite out of the bunch
 
For awhile the yellow on the left was because it was rare. Now go to RAP and every other hammer is yellow. But I'm very happy with each because I think they represent the best of that particular color.
