My LFS had a few nice speciosa acropora frags for sale. I chose one that I thought had the most potential and it's doing very well so far. I went back to see how the others faired, for the most part they look pretty good still. There is one other that grabs my attention as it's very different from the first I bought. My concern is it as an active feather duster like hitchhiker I see in it. By active I mean it sends out what looks like a small white feather, waves it around, I assume filters for a second and then retracts momentarily. Then repeats.
It concerns me as the frag is small, and it's dead center where the branches are separating so I'd have to mutilate the frag to get it out. I'm not sure if a dab of superglue would work for something like this. Of course, I'm also concerned about this spreading to other acro if its some form of pest.
I'm searching the forums to try and find what exactly this is but haven't seen it yet. Straight up little fan/feather shape duster popping in and out every few seconds. Has anyone dealt with something like this before. Gorgeous piece but not sure it's worth the gamble. Times like this I wish I had a coral QT.
Thanks for any advice or links to what it might be.
Pic of current frag for tax. the one I'm eyeballing is baby blue with yellow coralites.
