Well I did a search and didn’t see any other bumpy clove polyps so I’ll assume it’s bad. Hoping it’s just growing a branch but I’m not holding my breath.

I got these about a week and a half ago and put them in my tank after a bayer and peroxide dip. I noticed these bumps a few days ago and they appear to be getting larger. Any idea what it is?

The bumps appear to only be on the polyp on the left so far.

may be reaction to Bayer. peroxide they can tolerate, not so much Bayer or other dips. keep an eye on it as it may also be a new head starting to emerge

Looks like it is growing new heads thankfully.
I thought the stalk in the back was dead but it appears to be making a comeback.
