I got a GSP colony on Friday. It has slowly started opening this weekend. I did a 2 hour drip acclimation. Today i noticed some polyps oozing green liquid into the tank. I cannot find anything on this about this online so i dont know if this is a concern. I havent been able to get a pic of the liquid yet.
60 gallon
Ph =0
Nitrate=10ppm.
Alk = 10 dkh
Cal =460
Mag =1275
Sal =1.025
Ph = it usually shows 8.1 but test kit sucks and hard to read.
4 t5 HO lights 2 coral plus 2 purple plus
Nitrates are up i know. I feed heavy sometimes because im afraid my goby isnt getting enough food.

Sounds like the GSP are expelling some zooxanthellae. I have seen it with acclimating corals. As long as they are opening I would not be too concerned.
