posting this in several places in hopes of getting an ID.

This whole "colony" is the size of a normal zoa polyp.

These little colonies are popping up in random spots in my tank. Anyone know what they are? To kill or to keep?

thanks

They look like a kind of clove polyp. If they are, they are really fast growing and spread all over. I just redid my rock to get rid of something that looked similar to yours (different colour, mine was browny-blue).

more than likely leptastrea sp.

most definitely not cloves/clavularia

Does leptastrea reproduce via spores? Like when a flower releases seeds and then they start growing in random spots?
