Hello reefers I’m kinda new to reefing I owned fish only tanks for years but got out of the hobby 6 years ago. Now I’m back for about 6 months now and wanted to try reefing this tine I recently picked up a candy cane coral and a lot of the heads are splitting I take it as a good thing just not sure
