Extreme polyp extension from birdnest


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, these few days, I had noticed that my yellow birdnest had extreme polyp extension, somewhat similar to those of a sarcophyton if you can imagine.

In this picture, you can see that the polyp extension is so extreme that when the polps sway to the current, the little cavities in the skeleton structure can be seen (of course there's still tissue there, only that it is translucent)

What can be the cause of this? Could it be the dosage of AA or other factors? :huh:

tineng: Saw Joe's one had a lot of polyp extension but mine was like drooping down when there's no current. Maybe it's hungry or something

Tigger: I am using Salifert AA

don't quite get what you mean....if no current of course the polys are drooping down what???!!!!!

Anyway, when i first go a frag from joe it was also drooping down, but the poly start 'swaying' quite soon after (a few days later).....brought a similar peice later and same behaivour, so i seriously, i think its just normal behaviour for this speices of birdnest.....rather then any specific things that you did....;)

AA definitely helps in polyp extension... :)

Phew... I'm relieved to hear that it is normal

Thought the polyps are about to bail or something :lol:

And I've also seen better polyp extension from my other SPS after dosing AA :D

Mine seems to stretch out throughout the day

Maybe it's stimulated by my high ORP and iodine dosage :P
