good to see some progress on the the growth.
do you check your alk and Ca at all?
it could be from a low Ca level.

looks great meowzer. You need some acro's or something that grows up, every coral you have stays by the rock....

LOL...I have a few acros, but they are not big enough to see in the fts yet ....I have to stand so far away to get the whole tank in the shot...if you really look, you can see my purple acro (right side)...the deepwater acro (mid bottom) bottlebrush ( to the right of the deepwater) Birdsnest (to the right of the green rhodactis) Orange digitata (2 of them..one is left of the frogspawn, the other is on the right side of tank) and of course the elkhorn monti...left top of tank Pink Damicornis (left of the green rhodactis)

Just a word of caution: That orange digitata looks awfully close to the frogspawn.

Yeah...it's not as close as it appears in the picture..BUT this was a frogspawn I got from SWF (who would have guessed) it was a little frag, NOT NO MORE
I may have to move the FS over a little bit soon though....the digitata it attached to the rock, the FS I believe is not
