Candy Coral Help!!

Yep its reproducing my closed brain is going thru that now

Its normal, my frogspawn and hammer corals have both done it in the past as well. I also had my candys do it too. It was often triggered in my tank by heavy feeding, or a fish shoving its way in the branches to get to some food.

I'll take a picture tonight....but its not nearly as pretty to look at as it was a few weeks ago.

A lot of corals disperse this way and i wouldnt be at all surprised if candy canes did this naturally. Just look at how dense your colony is; there's no more room for lateral asexual reproduction. I wouldn't worry about it too much, but i might consider spreading the love and fragging that bad boy. btw, I'd say that's a very nice colony.

I have a riccordea mushroom rock that is losing little mushrooms all over the place. I think it is the same thing - no space left in the colony so reproducing. Beautiful coral, by the way.
