I would let them decide. If you do move them, she might find something even more weird to host in. Mine are hosting in GSP at the moment instead of the BTAs. That will probably change in time. You should have named her MaryAnne as she would be more suitable to a long term relationship, anyway. JK...

Pics of the acros?

I would use a turkey baster to blast away at the cyano on the polyps. It will do damage if left on there by blocking light and maybe other mechanisms. Blast away and catch it with a net or siphon. I think cyano is cyclic in that it comes and goes -- which in my tank may be a matter of how consistent I am in maintenance.

If they have stripes when closed up, that'll be the second indication that they are people eaters ie Zoanthus gigantus (technically not a paly). http://zoaid.com/ind...&g2_itemId=2459 They remind me of some polyps called campfires but the campfires have a green circular area around the green mouth that I don't see in Sherita's. Here's an old pic of some lunars from ATL.

The mystic monti Those polyps should close up at night

Actually I'd like to see some pics of those suckers closed up. Do they have stripes?

I'm on my way to Brownwood!! Cool polyps!

I would think of it as a life history strategy to deal with hostile conditions; they fall, get crushed, broken up and beat up. Low and behold, more polyps emerge. Fungia (and other plates) are successful due to their ability to do just what you have documented and are well known for it. In your tank, it may have been that conditions were so good that the best strategy was to divide up and exploit the resources. just guessing... Why individual polyps may be larger than others? Initial conditions (e.g. more underlying tissue) may have been different giving some a head start, of course imperceptible to you and me. Another factor may be the slight differences in microhabitat conditions leading to faster growth in some.

I looked in my fish tank with a light...to find ???

Mating copepods would be my guess. At the LMAR meeting, we saw a presentation by the queen of copepods and they do move fast...
