Mounting SPS frags to rockwork...how much space do you need between frags?

Wow Joe that's insane growth.

My vote is 4-8" depending on species and more important size of tank. The bigger the tank the more space to allow the colonies to grow bigger. A 300 with a million 3" colonies would look stupid IMHO. In my 100 colonies of about 5-6" are about right for overall proportion
 
One of the biggest mistakes people make is over crowding their tanks. Once the corals get to a decent size you can have STN or RTN problems if the corals are always battling other corals for limited space.
...but...but I always want more coral! #thestruggleisREAL
