MrZ2u Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I think I have too much flow over my frogspawn and I am adjusting that but a small piece of it broke off, I mean like smaller than a pea. Two little green bubbles. They have come to rest in a spot on the bottom with no flow to knock them around. Will they start growing on their own? Second question, flow...none, low, med, high? pros and cons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Gott Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I've heard that these little pieces can grow into a new polyp, but I've never seen it.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mFrame Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I've had similar pieces from frogspawn, torches, and hammers, but never seen one grow from just the flesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrZ2u Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 Well its hidden from the flow in a cavity in the rock so we shall see what becomes of it...not really getting much light where it is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 If it's one of the tiny baby polyps that start around the perimeter of a mature polyp they will grow and eventually form a new colony. Frogspawn can tolerate very low light, just a few PAR so if the pieces have a skeleton they can survive and grow in low light conditions. If the pieces are just part of a tenticle that broke off I'm with Peter and Mike, they probably won't survive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
