This is a bit of a strange one. This, I believe it is a neon green birdsnest, has come fr nowhere. 3 months ago there was nothing in this spot at all.
6 months prior to that there was a large birdsnest that I relocated as it was in prime acropora position and taking up too much room. I can only think that it has left a polyp or two behind.

Old pics I posted from a 3 month progress update:
My video shows my tank when it started and then what it looks like 1 year later. I went from bare to almost so full I had no room left on rocks in my 96x30x24 tank.
Right around 3:10 shows the tank before and then of course 1 year later.

Nice. I tried to get one of those from TSA but was not fast enough. Maybe sell me a frag after your colony is mature....My greatest acropora success (some would say only success)
My garf bonsai, 8 months growth.
I even managed to knock a piece off by accident and frag it so that is also my best fragging success.

Yea it help as no3 is 1ish and po4 around .03.
The 12 fish feed the corals.
Keeping parameters stable and definately dosing trace elements helps imo.

I'd say so.
But I'll add that this was a cheap no name frag, but realistic yes. And I think it was my first frag getting into SPS corals. Wish it was a Vivid's Confetti or something lol, but it doesnt usually work that way.

If you don’t do water changes are you dosing something to make up for elements that are in the salt that you get when you do a water change I don’t do water changes either but am starting to think i should
