The fastest SPS I've ever seen grow is Elkhorn Montipora (not a digi or cap!!! 
). This coral has grown like a weed in my tank, and rivals the growth rate of my pulsing Xenia. Here's a pic with it hosting my Yellow Clown Goby. This picture was taken in mid-April, and I'd say that coral is now three times as large (I don't have any current pics unfortunately).

In my experience, quick growing corals include A. yongei, A. nobilis, A. millepora, A. prostrata, A. nana, A. valida, P. damicornis, and S. hystrix.

also basically most sps grow fast......in any species you should get 1/2" to 2" every month........the only species i have had that hasn't gorn that much is pocillopora
That all depends on the specific coral. Many of my acros grow quickly but my Oregon Tort, Purple Monster and several others grow extremely slow! Maybe a couple of inches per year.
