It's definately one of the slower growers. When it came in, it was barely a head, so I set it in the prop tank and tried to forget about it. I figured neglecting it would give it the best chance to survive, because if I looked at it every day, it would probably end up getting moved, touched to much, or possibly fragged. I've had it for probably 6 months, and started checking on it again about a month ago, when I noticed it had 5 heads. It now has 8, and is just starting to make it to the base, where they really seem to take off.
I'll keep this post updated as it progresses.
