Weird thing on the face of a polyp

Does anyone know what's going on with my Zoa? It's fleshy and solidly attached to the face of the zoa.

I sometimes see zoas do this. Not neccesarily a bad sign but I'm pretty sure its spitting out Zooxanthellae

Interesting - I've seen them spit a little out, but they tend to be stringier and of a softer texture. I guess I'll keep a closer eye on it the next few days

Yea usually every now and then I see the long strings come out while the polyps are completely open. But sometimes the odd ones mushroom up like that and spew out a glob. Is that a new piece?

Yeah-ish - three weeks and I moved them from the frag plug they came on to the rock so they could grow more naturally - I managed to pop the glue loose and just directly transfer them to the rock after I dipped them.
