Sea Apple Splitting?

Weird thing I just noticed, a Sea Apple looks like it's splitting? Now has a small growth on it's side thats retracting from the main body. The main Apple has both a mouth and rectum (?) and how it looks like a new mouth on the small growth..This just happened in 24 hours as it didn't look like this in the AM...

Sorry for the crappy image, but lights out and had to use a flash and shooting thru acrylic

Wow...Happening fast...The new mouth is opening and closing fairly fast and the retraction/gap from the main body is also getting smaller and smaller.
 
:p Does new mouth have a tentacles? Otherwise it still could be the opening and closing rhythmically the opposite end of the body ;)

Sea apples are taking sometimes this shape time from time.
But if yours will actually split, take a pictures - this will be very interesting.

What you are feeding to yours? Any tips on keeping to share?
 
I feed ReefSnow every otherday.

This Apple is smart, figured out that if he just hangs out near the return from the sump, all it has to do is extend it's feeding tentacles.. This one has not moved more than 6" in the last 3 weeks...
