Haha, I don't think that flow or light are the issue.
The last tank they were in had 35watts of halide/gallon and over 40x's turnover. These are zoos, not sps.
If anything I believe that some zoos do better in a "dirty" aka nutrient rich tank. Moderate light and flow seem to get better results JME. IF they ever do grow enough to frag I will definitley give you a call.
Cheers,

zoos tend to do really well when you leave them along and dont move them.

Hi all,
I have moved the tank over to the same spot that was occupied by my two gallon cube. As soon as I figure out how to post photos I will...

You may have gotten them from me because I still have some, and can't get them to grow much either.

Ya, I think you're right Bob. I guess Murphy's Law apllies to the natural world as well...
