spawning pocillipora or?

[Susan Edwards]

So I have something very tiny growing. I can't get a good pic of it but it looks like it has "coral features", tiny brown specks/dots on it and "whiskers", not just a solid green blob. Could one of my corals spawned? I have birds nest and pocillopora

Horrid pic but I can't get better. I have no leathers. Thinking bird's nest or pocillipora. Too small for a paly or zoa or other LPS

If you have procillapora, it's very likely procillapora. They spread like crazy

If you want a better pick maybe take as orange tinted sunglass as you can and put that over your phone that helps me get better photos. Other than that I agree with Dragons reef.

I did not know this! I was given some in trade lol's. I already have like 5 or six of them as I was given a bunch of frags. Well, my tank will have thriving corals lol's

This is not necessarily a good thing. They can spawn continuously until you have these all over the tank.They can become invasive. This is not always the case so I would just keep an eye out for it. Unless you like a tank full of pocci.

I have filters for my phone. The Orphek phone lenses. It is just very tiny. Used my viewing mag as well lol's.

Yeah, I'll watch for them. Glue over them if need be

Both Pocillopora and Seriatopora are brooders that release swimming baby coral (fully formed planulae) that have a high chance of survival in reef tanks. So it could be either one, although Pocillopora is the more likely.
