Thanks, Anthony.
Seems that it takes a couple months usually for SPS corals to settle in. But once they start growing, they really take off. I acquired some more SPS frags the last couple months, and same thing seems to be happening. Very little growth on the new frags, but the older established ones growing like crazy.
Might be my LEDs, too. They say they are harsh on new frags (if they came from T5 or MH lighting), and takes a while to acclimatize to the new lighting. I do start the new frags lower down, or at the back of the frag rack, but it doesn't seem to matter.
At the moment, my tank parameters are not perfect, with P04 around .09 (used to be mostly zero). And still fighting some algae. But again, the established corals don't seem to mind.
