Not figuring I'll get much out of this one, but hey.. worth a shot

Found this on my LR today (been in the tank for just over a week now)... Open/Closed

Poop brown palythoa?

Sounds about right.. wonder how long until they overtake that rock, now

Could be anything I had some nice red/blue/green just pop up on a rock that I thought was gone a year ago. You may be suprised, and you may have a brown poop polyp, LOL

Poop browns are the sh*t. Had one on my 1st ever piece of LR.

Yeah this was the first piece I bought at a LFS nearby. Wonder how long it's been popping out back there.

So, for any who may be interested.. here's what it looks like now, after 2 months of good light.

Brown with very nice green stripes. Also, has gotten huge.. close to the size of a quarter

Nice green palythoa

i had the same thing. started brown and is now green striped

looks cool with the green stripes

those grow like weeds

This one has yet to spawn any new ones.. hoping it does soon

i started off with 3 or 4 of those on a piece of live rock a year ago, since then i've fragged them a good 15 times and have 6X6 tiles covered in those beasties.
if you want them to grow faster, you can feed those cyclopeeze/mysis. mine eat like pigs.

Weird, I had a similar one and it took like a year to grow three extra polyps, some of them grow really fast and some just sit there and look green.

I have fed it some mysis from time to time, definitely seems to enjoy it. I'll step up the feeding (only been giving it 1 or 2 shrimp a week at most) and see what happens

Well, if it doesn't grow then you've got the rare LE version
