So there are two pagoda cup corals at my LFS. I've decided that I really like this species, and I will probably end up getting one or the other, but I can't decide which one.
One is green and the other is pink. I like the color of the green one a lot better, but it doesn't appear to be as healthy as the other. The reason I say this is that I can only detect polyps on the green cup around the edges. There are no discernable polyps in the center. The pink one has the normal amount of polyps distributed equally around the cup. They both have had good polyp extension when I have seen them, it is just the number and distribution of polyps which concern me.
My question is: will new polyps grow and fill in this empty space on the green cup, or will this area of the coral remain empty?
