    just got some new palythoas last week.I've never owned any palys or zoas before.Noticed this week that some of the polyps are secreting what appears to be poop out of its mouth.

    Question: is this normal behavior (pooping out of the mouth) or are my palys in trouble?


    Please point me in the right direction before its to late.That is of course if things are bad.If this is normal(seems normal)...well then cheers!!!


    Thanks
