Stylo/pocillo spawning

[jduong916]

So i really like stylos/pocillos but im too scared to put them in my new tank. I had a rainbos stylo/pocillo dont know which one in my old tank and it spawned like crazy, worst pest ever. It wasnt thick like a purple stylo, it was skinnier. So i just want to know if the fatter stylos spawn or not. I had a purple stylo and it never spawned. If anybody knows which of these spawn and which do not it would be very helpful.

I think poccilopora is the one that spreads via polyp bailout like you're thinking.
FWIW, I've had a green pocci for over two years and never had it happen.

I cant tell the difference between a stylo and poccilo. Seems like no one really knows lol

Yeah, I don't know the difference either. Old gif of mine under daylight. Shortly after receiving it...

Is the metallic green one that spawns like crazy. Others are fine.

This is the one thats kinda green and purple right? Not as thick as the normal purple stylo?

It's all green and yes not as thick and stubby. Stubbier? Lol
Purple and pink variety are fine.

Ok so i had a green/purple one spawn, a lot of people had the same one spawn as well. I do think its the skinnier guys and not the stubby fat ones lol

I love it when husbandry gets so good that corals become problems
