Looks like it's growing new polyps but it don't look like other peoples hammers that I've seen, opinions?

Wait... Frogspawn? dude sold it me as hammer lol

I accidentally od my tank on purple up and my xenia don't look to good right now so I thought that's why my hammer was looking like that [emoji52]
 
Its definitely a frogspawn. Notice how each tentacle has multiple heads? Hammer coral has one head per tentacle. Purpleup can raise alkalinity if I remember correctly so an OD can certainly hurt your coral. But the frogspawn appears to be happy.

Purple Up raises dissolved calcium levels. I wouldn't use it.
 
It's been 2 weeks since od and been keeping up with water changes so hopefully I didn't do to much damage.

When closed up at night it looks like there may be 4 heads total on it but I'd rather have a healthy looking frogspawn then a swollen looking hammer lol
Thanks for your reply :)
 
And yeh.. I got a full bottle of it now but defo won't be using it again.
