Coral Growth Thread

Not really sure if we have one of these threads here, but I think it would be really cool to have a thread that shows the growth progress in corals. We are all curious as to how fast certain corals grow and how they look when they get bigger, so I think it would be really cool if people would post some growth sequence shots of their corals. So if you have some pics you would like to share, or have something your really proud of, please post! Also, if you could post what your lighting is, that would be valuable as well! Ill start:

My current lighting is 4 x 24 watt T5 in a 20 long.

seriously though. I need to get some documentation pics now.
I have many pics of my corals in my 90g form a few months back, but now in the new tank they are arranged differently so it is not quite as easy to tell. Some are pretty obvious though.

 

horkn, at least you have an awsome radiant.

 

be careful with that towel. i got one of those cheaply made free towels also, probably catch on fire if you look at it wrong lol!:

 

lol aint that the truth
