Hard to tell under heavy blue lighting but often growth of sponge does this as well as bacteria that triggers tissue recession

I think it's going to split in to 3 new heads honestly it's what it looks like not I'm looking at it with the lights off!
If it’s down the middle of the mouth- then splitting. Pics always best under white lighting
