Favia splitting?

[bvanfish]

Hello,

is this favia splitting? It doesn’t look like bleaching it looks like the neon green that is around the mouth is starting on the outside of the favia? Is it splitting or something else?

You can’t see it as well since the green doesn’t show up as much.

Maybe some sort of worm. I have a ton in my sump and they just die off eventually. IF I remember correctly favia grow extremely slowly. My favia looked like that for the longest time and I never noticed it split

Ok sweet. So other than that. Favia is not splitting just getting this new color? It didn’t have this color before I don’t think

I have a bowerbanki that’s growing. New heads for the hobby term.

Did they emerge from the center or sides?

Looks alot like some of the red feather dusters that grow om my rock work, fragplug and under the corals. Those are harmless. Maybe you could double check if its a white tube.

That is a tube worm and you can remove frag into a container of tank water and scrape off with a paring knife and return to tank
Not splitting

Sometimes corals change color. Looks like yours is just maturing and changing colors.

It's just maturing. Mine was just a few heads when I got it.

That’s beautiful. How long to grow to that? Do you target feed them ever? I’ve heard mixed reviews
