I do not target feed anything in my tank. but use variety of foods including sps fine powdered foods occasionally

Polyp extension is very good about 3 inch or more
Check your water basics parameters, Ph alkalinity and Kh are critical.
But don't panic when you see your test results... double check with at least two different tests.

use these three additives as recommended or less and you will be OK
SeaChem Reef Advantage Magnesium
.
SeaChem Reef Builder Additive
.
SeaChem Reef Buffer Additive

Assuming this is a "reef" there obviously will be some sort of Calcium supplementation, I do have a Calc reactor though.
My Calc is at 420ppm
