Polyp spawning a new node

[JimFun71]

Hi all,
I think my button is spawning a new node. Normally theres 6 heads and today I noticed that one of them was all closed up tight and there was a new growth on the stem. Does anybody know for sure, is this how a polyp spawns a new head? As always thanks for any input,
Jim

Yes it is! But I don't kno why it's closed, they do weird things

My LPS would always look crummy before they split... I can't recall if my softies did it, too.

That's how my polyps/palys look also when growing a new head...so it's normal. :)

Congrats papa!!!!! Yeah button polyps spread like crazy!!!!. I started with a rock that had maybe 6 or 7 on it and now have probably close to 100 palyps on several rocks.
