Yea mine does too. Here is a stalk that grew off off mine, then reattached to the back glass. I have all kinds of corals, but the green star polyp among my favorite.

Try high light and moderate flow. I have never seen one get too much light. I would prop it up closer to the light.

These things should grow like weeds. When nothing else in my tank was doing well my GSP was growing like crazy.

Once it gets going you'll wish it didn't grow mine grows on the sand bed and now it's branching which is cool.

Story of my life. GSP, Xenia and mushrooms. When I was starting, I wanted anything that’ll grow on my tank, until my GSP, xenia and shrooms took off. I was scraping them off my rocks with razor blades and flushing them down the toilet lol

My GSP started branching too when it ran out of space. It was creating its own real estate lol

Fragging it is as easy as cutting paper. If it growing toward where you don’t want it, easy to trim it back. Mushrooms and Xenia, are not as easily contained though.
