Growth rates of montipora digitata

[esmithiii]

Anyone with information on the expected growth rate of montipora digitata? I have mine under 400W 6500K MH + 2x 96W PC Actininc in my 180G. I dose Kalkwasser w/ vinegar.

Greetings,
I bought a purple tipped Montipora Digitata in July-01 and its size was about a 3" cube. Now it is about 3"x4"x5. Lighting was a single 400w Iwasaki or a Hamilton 10,000K bulb and currently 400w Hamilton mounted horizontally with 2x96watt PC actinics. This is on a 46 bow. Very good growth and the actinics have made the color come back. Currently dosing B-Ionic but building a Nislen Reactor. HTH

Wow, that's good growth! I've been getting almost 1/2" a month on my purple monti d. under 2x65W PCs. I'd expect more under MH.

Here is my purple digitata. This is even with a tank crash in November.
