Hi everyone! So I have this favia and two of the polyps are a different colour from the rest of the frag. When I received the frag they were all the one colour, but these two have changed. Strangely enough they're the only two polyps that extend feeding tentacles and the only two which will accept food.
It's not something I'm concerned with, they still look healthy after all. Just wondering if anyone knows why this may happen?

Do they seem to heal faster or extend little claws?
 
Nope, no little claws. This has been a very hardy frag so hasn't taken any noticeable damage to heal from, so I can't comment on that :/
These two polyps pretty much always have feeding tentacles out. They eat like pigs!

Haha I wasn't too sure where you were going with that. That joke went straight over my head. It's not hard for that to happen though, I'm only 5'6" [emoji23]
