Anyone ever notice a propagation difference?
Most zoas I've bought have been frags, assumed tank grown.
Recently purchased 2 interesting medium colonies (50-80 polyps), dripping seawater, ocean picked.
Inspecting tank today and their polyps are taking hold in at least 4 places on rock. 2 polyps in my filter and 1 stuck to the filter pad of the MP10. Parent colonies are doing fine and expanding.
This tank is small and very controlled, no predators. I do have an emerald crab, but he's well fed and content, never bothers the softies.
Is this normal for all zoas when they hit medium to large colony size?
Is this a wild zoa thing?
I'd love to think that I may have Rastas from my frag free floating some day.
