I’ve had his green slimer for about 10 months now. I’ve always noticed that on one of the branches something sticking out. It was always hard to see cause it was towards the back of the tank and didn’t seem to be causing any issues so I let it go. I would just notice a web like substance coming out of it (like that of a Vermitid snail) so though maybe it was that.
Well tonight I decide to investigate further and poked around on the branches tip and something moved! I then grabbed my bone cutters and snipped the tip off.
Turns out, whatever it is had been hollowing out the coral for some time. I should note that it looks perfectly healthy and is growing fine.
Here is there hollowed out tip
And this is what I saw move. The little red disk on the left acted as a shield when I poked it. It sunk into the tip and that disk “capped” it off
