I know they're not really sweeper tentacles but when you SPS guys feed your tank, does any SPS have stringy stuff that comes out? My red plant frag does every time I feed the tank. I'm wondering if this indicates good health.

I've been feeding everyday and the red planet extends them.
It's not from their waste:

I'm just not sure if it's a good sign of health or not. There's nothing near this coral and they just come out during feeding.

That's my guess too. I just didn't expect it to be so tenacious so quickly. That's one of the frags I got from Allan, both are looking really good.

Man, I need you to come over and feed my tank. That RP looks happy as heck.
