How fast does your stylophora grow?

[Chris86]

Hey guys,

I got a wet thumbs magenta stylophora from fraghouse corals live sale. It's really nice. Anyways, how fast does a stylophora generally grow?

 

[wkscott]

Can't give a growth rate because there are many factors involved here including: lighting, water flow, tank parameters, water quality and feeding. I can say however, that under proper conditions, it grows faster than most other SPS corals.

+1 In my experience, Stylos have been my fastest growing SPS, even faster than my birdsnests.

What are the ideal conditions for growth? High flow/light? Med flow/light? Something else? Other factors? I've got a new burning banana frag I'm hoping to get growing good. :D

I've got some blue Stylo that's blowing the doors off of everything else in my tank by a longshot.
