It's had this white area for a few weeks now and slowly got bigger and now has gone completely to the other side.

Any reason to be concerned?

Polyps come out during the day, it's just retracted since lights just came on.
 
Following. I have one doing the same thing. It just appeared a week or so ago. I thought something bit it but im not sure. Ive had the same fish for quite a while. My lights are just now ramping up, mine has normal polyp extension later in the day. I have another that divides and drops a baby once in a while but it is always on an edge.

I've had the same thing happen where its on the edge. I just don't want it to nuke my tank. Lol
 
d

do u have lights on during the day?
It came from my tank that's a couple years old, but I recently upgraded to a larger tank. It gets about 200 par and I feed heavy a couple times a day but my skimmer pulls everything out so my nutrients stay pretty low.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 5 13.2%
  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
