finger leather

Good to see someone else has them also. I thought that the person that had the rock before me attached it with fiberglass,

 

Whats the color like? I am guessing green.....

Are the small feelers extended?

 

Well if it's mod to higher flow, your parameters are all good, I will assume no one is eating it/picking at it.

The fiberglass substance is called Sclerites, a structural support system. This was a cool thread.

Coral Sclerites

So did it close up after you moved it up towards the light to higher flow?

 

No it was closed up already for 6 to 7 days - this is the second time in 2 months.

thank you for the link going to read it now

 

I am still having issues with your avatar lol. If it's purpose is to make me gag everytime I see it, job well done? Oh the sacrifices I make...........

 

no feelers out - just smooth - the finger leather is purple and very light purple right now.

 

LOL no it's to make you laugh

Actually it reminds me to listen first LOL

 

According to The Reef Aquarium Volumn I and II. When leathers wax over for extended periods of time they may be UV burnt. I would not be concerned really but it sounds like it crumbled at the base when you move it a little. Some photoshock it should get over, but it should not be falling apart. Question is dip, or move down, or leave.

 

But this is the first time I moved it - it was doing great for two months then did it's hibernation for two weeks opened up again and was fine then now it's done it again - but this time I thought I would move it to higher flow - then I noticed all the fiberglass type stuff come out.
