i just was curious to see what your fastest growing sps were. i have some in my tank that does not seem to move, and that seem to grow too fast, lol. in my frag tank i was hoping to have variety, but it seems i have a bunch of frags from a few corals....the ones that grow too fast.

for me my fastest grower by far is my ora tri-color validia. it grows insanely fast. some of the other faster ones would be ora pearlberry, ora bird of paradise, and all of the encrusting montis (superman, jedi mind trick, sunset ..... and so on) oh and the pink lemonade.

Most all my montis, my green w/ peach tips slimer, my milleporas, the yellow porites. Course most everything grows pretty fast under 400w MH's. Having strong flow helps a lot in growth as well.

yeah its growing very nicely. it has encrused alot and not really formed new branches but the branches that were existing are much longer...

i have it located in the middle of the tank for placement, and its kept its nice red and green.

Tri color valida, green slimer, and my orange cap all grow quick. When I used to have my Idaho grape, it was a super quick grower too.

Encrusting montis and my ora green birdnest grows very fast. Thats great because it has one of my favorite greens in the tank. Green slimer also does very for me too, I just dont like it as much as the bird.

Sunset montipora, a purple-tipped Acropora nana, Ric Leishman's red tabling acropora, Gadgets yellow tabling acro - and of course blue-tipped staghorn. Just started growing a bali tri-color, but it seems to be really growing fast.
