Parameters are good just tested today, has been one of my biggest and fastest growing euphila and for some reason a whole tentacle polyp started floating around as I was looking at it. Has anyone seen or heard of this? Is it bad or is it propagating?

I got like 12 colonies of torches in my tank and its not the strangest occurance to have a "rouge" tenticle get loose.

It normally happens when they're splitting lots for me.

Or a fish swam too close lol

Gotcha, it has me spooked because it is my biggest and my oldest. But it does have 3 MEGA heads so it could be splitting off possibly... Or I hope, that would be awsome, thanks for the feedback as well!

Jezzzzzz those torch’s are FLOWING, love the setup!
 
1. Not an emergency
2. Not a euphyllia (frogspawn, hammers, and frammers are fimbriaphyllia)
3. Not uncommon as others have said.
Are you saying its not a euphyllia? Then what is it because it has been sold to me as a hammer but I'm leaning toward framer?

Wow just did some research and seen a paper published by reef builders and that is true! You learn something new everyday, thanks for The clarification!
 
What?? You doubted me?? (Lol ;) )
You just never know, but I’m always open to learning new things within the hobby. My girlfriend says I have a addiction, I think of it as a hobby… who knows
 
Someone with a Phd investigated the group and renamed them. Ironic, because like splitting off a tentacle on the old family tree.
I'm gonna start investigating corals so don't be surprise when you start seeing Joshopora and Joshcanthastrea!
