Is this polyp extension normal for this Orange Yuma mushroom, I can’t seem to find anything like it online.

Wow! I’ve never seen extension like that either! Following!

I don't know what it means, but some of mine have done that on and off for years, I've never lost one, so I guess its not bad. But I would be curious to know why that happens.

Is that a Hammer right next to the mushroom? If it is the hammer may be stinging it and the polyps are showing signs of distress.

Wait there is a torch behind it too?

My yumas will go through long periods where they swell up like that in places. I've never had one die. Quite the opposite, as they are taking over the lower portion of my tank.

The torches dont touch the mushroom, and tis was happening before i relocated it there.

They look very healthy! and yes mine seem to be doing well and new ones are popping up.
