Hey guys, is my toadstool leather spawning baby polyps nearby, or is that aptasia? It sure looks awfully similar to the leather's polyps, but I wanted to make sure. Also, if the former, I never realized that it could spawn elsewhere that way, and if so, that's exciting to me. For what it's worth, I don't believe that part highlighted in the picture is a part of the coral itself, and it also came with that bonus shell for some reason.
