frogspawn picture, also have a question?

[mus1cizmythang]

As you can see from the pic, theres a blue colored head with little green specs in it, and my frogspawn is kind of spread apart. Is this good? Does this mean it is dying? Growing? Tell me what you think! Any help appreciated.

that one head is just not open all the way....at night they will all look like that and even more so shriveled up
The rest of it seems ok...how long have you had it.....it probably is still adjusting
ALSO...if something bothers it, the heads will shrivel too.....don;t be too concerned unless it stays that way forever...LOL

 

[mus1cizmythang]

Ive had it for like 2 days. So yeah, it probably is. its just when I got it, it was completely open, and now theres two heads like that and theyre like a turquoise color with little green dots.

 

[mus1cizmythang]

It was just the different color that confused me.

Just watch it.....one thing with frogspawn and some other lps they can get something called brown jelly disease...I DO NOT see that, LOL.....BUT if you start to see a brown slimey substance it needs to be take n care of immediately before the rest of the heads get it
RIGHT now I think you are ok...this is new to you so everything it does will also be different for you....

 

[mus1cizmythang]

Haha, alright. Hopefully im ok! So when they go in they change color? That was just what worried/confused me, because they were like a blue color. I didnt know if that was a new one coming in or if it was irritated or what.

 

[meowzer]

It's not exactly that they are changing color......they are just not extended...so therefore not as transparent as when fully extended

 

[mus1cizmythang]

Do you know what the name of this coral is?

 

[meowzer]

Looks like a toadstool leather.....those polyps wil lgo in at night, LOL...so don;t be concerned....they will also go in if something touches it

-___- oh c'mon, I'm not stupid!! I was just confused because they were a completely diff color.
