I have some orange and blue ricordias and they have not been near as big as they were when I first got them. They used to be a easy quarter size and now maybe are nickel size. I have had them at least a year now and they don't have the size or color that they used to. All water parameters are in check and running 175w xm 20k's and the mushrooms sitting about halfway up in a 75 gal tank.
ph8.3
alk 9-10
cal. 420ppm
mag. 1300
nitrates low
I do feed with marine snow and don't seem to be doing any better. I admit I was slacking on maintenance but getting back in the habit and it's been a couple months already and don't seem to big and beautiful like they were.
