Default Noticed an interesting thing about Ricordia

I was idly peering at a Ricordia frag yesterday, and was panicked by what appeared to be a large worm at the base. I removed the frag with the intent of killing the worm. Closer inspection revealed that it was not a worm after all. What I saw seems to be the method of locomotion, and perhaps a meams of multiplying. The worm like thing was what can best be described as a Pseudopod. The ricordia was in the process of moving from the small rock it had occupied to a larger rock.

So you're saying Ricordia can move itself around? That's quite interesting. Has anyone else experienced this?

This one sure did. It is now on the larger rock.
