I would say that they are not getting enough light, especially if the polyps are growing further off the mat. From what I have seen, a common occurance/morph with polyps (zoas) that get more light than they need is that they will develop specks of white on the polyp itself. Last example I can remember of this was Brian's (Greenmako) PPEs that had a speckled morph to them.

Don't suppose it would help to mention that these are NOT zoas would it? I was just listing zoas as an example.

Prob doesn't matter..

What coral is it?

250w over a 30g is more than enough light assuming they arent shaded by something (and they dont look so from the pic)

I tried using the search feature, but didn't find the answer to my question.

My girlfriend bought a brita filter for our faucet in the kitchen, when you turn it on the "filter" feature it pumps out "clean" water for drinking. Will this work? Im assuming it wont... but just wanted to double check and make sure.

Thanks

Work? Yup. For drinking water...

For fish? Nope. Better than nothing, but not much.
