My blastos:
There is some tissue recession due to an attack from frogspawn.
My Duncans:
I got them in February and they were just 2 heads. I would say I have had some growth.
I have no luck with duncans...yours looks good....I try to keep my blastos away from everything ....don;t know if that head will come back,,,,but the rest seem great

Thanks!
I was pretty upset when I saw what happened to the blastos. I had not paid attention to how big the frogspawn had gotten.

Those are pretty. I really like your duncans.
Thanks! I'll try to find a pic from when I first got them and post that up to show the growth.

OMG, that head has almost regenerated all of the tissue that was lost. Pics to come.
Yeah. Duncan's grow like crazy.
Here is a pic of mine when I first got them. The pic is dated 4/1/2010 and there were 3 little heads.
Here is one from 9/28/2010. They had grown several new heads in a little under 6 months.
Here is a fairly recent photo. I just counted and there are at least 19 heads! He was recently mauled by a Bristletailed Filefish that I added to clean up Majano Anemones. His polyps have been withdrawn, but are coming out a little more each day.

mine barely grow ive maricultured aquaqucltred and wild and none of them grow fast like 1 polyp every 5 months
What do you keep your dkH at? I've read that higher alk promotes faster stony coral growth. I keep my dkH around 9 - 10. Mine are aquacultured. I feed them a fairly often as well.
