are you talking about the mushroom in the center? Not sure what I am looking for/

 

[RA]

It looks like a mushroom, but it's hard to tell with the picture being just under blue lights. Can you take a picture using your flash to get a better idea.

 

[protossdisaster]

i was thinking mushrooms too,
my driver on my whites went
and with flash it looks dark with the reflection with no blues.
I have 20 watts in white but that isnt enough.

Is it splitting?

 

[protossdisaster]

Its definatley a dull purple, i want to say its a purple mushroom i want to be definate though

 

[UNCsalt]

actinodiscus nummiforme aka purple mushroom...

 

[Dkuhlmann]

Yep and yes it is splitting into two

 

[protossdisaster]

Yay! Is that good or bad? I know it went through no acclimation i didnt even see it on the live rock until i rearranged and aquascaped.

 

[UNCsalt]

they are pretty hardy, they are not bad unless you do not like them, they will continue to split and multiply, will not take too long either. Not a bad freebie

 

[Dkuhlmann]

Mushrooms are considered good by some and nuisance by others. They can multiply and take over whole rocks, just depends on what you want. Oh and if you cut them up they multiply LOL

Good Read TY.
So they'll multiply when doing well ok,
Im not sure if this is correct but dont anemones split when stressed to ensure survival?
I do definatley enjoy it it was way smaller a couple weeks ago and started splitting with in the last few days.
