I have not. LOL. No honestly I really don’t (One note below). I have seen a major difference between dosing phyto and not on my system -sponges and pods as well as adding LARGE quantities of coral food. My corals have been super stoked with me adding about 500-1000% the recommended reef chili. My flatworms also seem to enjoy the over feeding 
The only and I mean only coral I’ve seen with the addition of aminos has been my frog spawn which seems to extend more and look much more plump. It is also forming a new mouth. However, I can not 100% state that this is happening because of the addition. I think my system has a lot of protein in it currently. I add a TON of freeze dried plankton AND I add a lot of phyto and tigger pods from culture. So I might not be seeing the pop that others see who just feed fish food.

Well as a feeder of Reef Roids(target feeding) every other day all I saw was a lot of algae growth. After ending that and going to once a week while at the same time increasing my white light to twice what it was my coral(SPS) is really growing. The algae is slowly dying.
