First off, beautiful Blasto's. Secondly I had a polyp that did that about a year ago. Polyp still has the bubble and is doing fine. Would love to know why it happened though.

wow ive been to lazy to post up about mine, but I have one that does the same thing.

It started after I fragged the colony, and the edges where it was cut bubble up like that and almost engulf the whole colony now.

It still grows fine, but doenst look as good since its covering the cool green centers...

I've had one of my blasto bubble up like that. Keep feeding it, and within a couple of months, it will calcify and form small heads, then drop off to reproduce asexually. I believe this has been documented in either Eric Boreman's book or Julian Sprung's book.
