New study documents increased growth of staghorn Acropora in higher phosphate levels title pretty much explains it all...

But look how brown those frags are. Browning of SPS corals is a sign of high nutrient levels and I personally prefer pretty colors to fast pace growth

+1 on that. 3 weeks ago i got 3 frags from my lfs for 5 bucks a green slimer an ora pocillapora and a birdsnest, they were almost all dead. but they look really good now.
