Hey all.
So the other day fluorescent green bio material floated out from what seamed to be my elegance coral. Looked like fluorescent green smoke strands.
Is this normal.
Today something was attached to the side of my tort. Looked like mysis but with fluorescent orange dots. I scraped it off with my finger and squashed it. It had the same fluorescent green bio material. It seamed to have dissolved a tiny bit of the tort.

After I squished it any took my finger out it stunk of acro.
Cheers

Best to make observations under white light. Too many things are fluorescent.
 
Polyp bailout?

I get little bits of neon green euphyllia floating around, sometimes

I don't worry about it

It's a propagation strategy
 
Hi.
I thought polyp would be brown.
Yeah I thought maybe propagation.
It’s in good condition. I’m not worried just curious.

Hi, Barks!

I'm not an expert at all, but I think what @Dan_P was asking for was a pic under bright, white light, with all your blue lights off. Posting a pic under white lights helps the R2R gurus better help you.

Good luck!

my bad. Yeah makes sense. I’ll remember that. Can’t do anything this time as it got squished and down the sink.
