Is this normal in a Candy Cane Mouth?

It is a bit gross, won’t be so bad if it is part of the coral. It seems to twist continuously clockwise, which suggests it isn’t attached? Has anyone else seen this? Thanks in advance. Mike

Can you tag website help on this, I have heard that it is a struggle for people to see/play videos. It was simple enough to upload through the app. Thanks for taking the time to look. I will try again on a video only comment on this thread.

Not playing for myself either. I wonder if it has to approved first and takes a little time? in case of indecent images perhaps?

I switched over to the app and now I can see it.

Your candy cane is expelling waste. They eat/poop from the same place.

Nothing to worry about unless it starts bleaching in which case it’s getting too much light and expelling zooxanthellae.

Its expelling waste. If lights are bright, can be zooxanthellae. Mine does this on occasion

Thank you, I am a newbie to Reefing and am paranoid about everything. I searched and found similar comments, but the spinny colon was not mentioned. Thanks again!
