Did this Tubastraea (Sun Coral) Spawn?

[H2OPlayar]

I have a few different colonies of Tubastraea (Sun Coral) in my tank. I was looking this evening and saw this small orange polyp on the underside of my arch. Did my corals spawn and is this a Tubastraea head?

Does anyone with a better camera want to come check it out?

@Thales any thoughts? Have you seen these corals spawn before?

Melev's reef seems to have seen his tubastrea spawn:

Yep. They are brooders and often spawn in tanks!

Congratulations!

That’s what happens when your tank is 20% phosphate and nitrate by weight

Just teasing, congrats that’s a fun accomplishment.
