Favia splitting/reproducing Q.

[G Santana]

I have had a Favia for 4 months plus, and just last night I noticed that one of the polyps seems to be elongated and looks like it's going to split.
This is the first Favia I have owned and I just bought it to round up an order for free shipping so I have no experience with them.
So is this one way they propagate?

Any insight is appreciated.

Seems to be splitting.

yep they do that, you may see a small line of skeleton forming under the flesh in the center of the polyp.
