Poseidon link said:my lps doesnt grow that fast at all, but most of my sps grow fairly well,
my zoas on the other hand, grow like weeds, turned a sunny d colony of 5 into 25-30 in 8 months

Reef Hero link said:First, where did the zoas come from? Many colonies that are not proven in captivity and even those that are, seem to have a notion to just melt away sometimes. The Sunny D's mentioned above seem to grow great for me and others....mine are lineaged back to darrylv.
I find that if I feed my tank, and spot feed my lps, everything does better. I am picky in which foods I use and I always monitor my po4 and nitrates. In order to keep feeding and not experience algae blooms, I find it necessary for me to keep my rodi media up to date and also change out my GFO regularly. I also skim very heavy and wet.
I have been thinking about trying some food specific for zoas and palys.....not sure though yet what to try.
