Default How long till things "bloom"

Ive come to the realization that what I have growing isnt bad. Im wondering what to expect as far as size and time on "blooms" ? Are button polyps all about the same size or do they vary? How often are clear things ( I cant get a pic yet too small) good? Thanks all sorry to ask so much at one time.

They vary some. Regular zoanthoids usually stay fairly small, but palythoa gets larger.

I meant to add that Im not trying to sound impatient Im just curious is all. I like to know what to watch for and more importantly when to watch. Im NOT rushing Im just asking . Thanks for the answers.
