    I just picked up my first LPS a Frogspawn and a Hammer. They both are open with good colour and seem happy. My question is about the frogspawn's polyps. Its a two headed frag that has one head with fairly short polyps kinda tight but extended while the other head has many polyps that are extended about 3" or more and are almost translusent. Is this normal? Its like its reaching for something.;)

    It's normal, it might want more light but make sure it is fully acclimated before moving again.

    As you can see from my sig it has lots of light. I placed it on a rock ledge in the middle third. I'll post pics tommorrow my lights are out right now. I wasn't too worried just curious thanks;)
