I've had a Ricordea for about 2 years now and it hasn't grown or split at all. is that normal? everything else (SPS/LPS/Zoas) is growing just fine.

Tank stats:
ALk: 9DKH
Cal: 450PPM
Phosphate: .03
no3 - 20ish
Mag 1400
ammonia 0
 
Maybe you should try moving it to another area in the tank it could be getting too much or too little flow or light in its current location.
Do you ever target feed it?
 
Is it orange?All my rics grow like crazy but my orange one has not done anything in the year I have had it.
 
Sometimes rics get in a growing splitting phase... Sometimes they just sit there and get bigger or just stay the same. If you really want it to grow and split faster, try spot feeding it.
