Slow growing sps corals

What are some slow growing sps corals? What will take a while to take over a rock and never really take over another coral because of growth rate?

Fast and slow growing SPS and vary between aquariums due to different parms. Currently I have a jaw dropper acropora that I"m waiting to take off. It seems to be a slow one for me so far. ON the other spectrum, a fast grower is pc rainbow. Regardless, sps will compete for growing its base and canapy for light. Some sps will respect each others boundaries without killing each other and some will not.

JD is definitely a super slow grower from what I’ve heard
