Frogspawn question

    I got a great neon green tip frogspawn from Fawn, and it has been looking great lately.  last night I saw that the fleshy tissue part of the frogspawn seemed to be moving up the skeleton towards the tentacles.  Is this an issue with the frogspawn, or is it just the frogspawn growing?
    I am sorry, I do not have an parameters atm, forgot to get them last night after I saw it and thought about it.  Everything else in the tank seems ok including Toadstool and KenyaTrees that I have been told are pretty touchy.  (Zoas all look great as well as the other single head of frogspawn I got from Fawn).

    are you saying it's moving up toward the tentacles and 'exposing' the skeleton?

    I'm going to run home at lunch here before I head out for the weekend and try to take one. I also have to test my water and may do a water change this afternoon. Hope it is not goign through an issue...

    If you're saying that the head is growing, moving out and leaving whiter skeleton in the form of a branch, that's normal. Now if the tentacles have receded and you see skeleton instead of the tentacles, then that's an issue. As long as the tentacles are looking inflated, regular color and healthy, things are probably OK.

    AJ, you were correct,t eh tissue moved up about 1/8" and white skeleton was shown, but the heads looked fine. I came home from being gone over the weekend and it looks great this morning, so I think it was just growing.

    The frogspawn looked great and some tentacles longer than I have seen them, so I hope everything continues to do well.
