Sps no Polyps?

Dipan Desai · Jun 4, 2020

So I bought a RR Pink Floyd about 10 months ago. When I threw it in my system it turned bone white and I actually thought I killed it but it was just bleached. Well fast forward to now it has colored up and been this way for at least 6 months. 0 growth on this thing and also I have never seen a polyp on it either. A friend mentioned something about polyp ejection but not really sure if that is what happened here. I have a lot of other SPS with great polyps extensions and growth. Also I thought I would try and snip a small piece to entice growth. Well I have a tiny frag in my frag tank now with great color no polyp and the main piece healed over withing a few days but no growth. Any insight to this issue with this one acro?

Mine took 4 months before it took off. Some just take longer.
Here is mine.

Yeah I figured I have a others seems like the sweet spot is 4-6 months for them to take off. This one is just baffling me.

@Dipan did your piece ever recover? I have the same situation with my pink floyd frag. Turned bone white for 2 months, now skin color came back and is mostly green/yellow, but no visible polyps or any encrusting.

Mines colored but no polyps, no growth still just hanging out haha. Everything else is growing fast and getting to colony size.
