Can you tell if it has a skeleton or if it's soft?

I can’t tell really.

Fed it some reef roids hoping to get a better look. Didn’t happen though.

Poke it softly with something.

Looks like this to me. If it is, I'll take one once they get bigger, if you wanna sell one that is.

The fungia babies are called anthocauli if you want to read more about the process. It’s interesting.

Yes, I would enjoy learning about this if you or anyone could provide reading material.

[emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] honestly I typed in baby plate fungia coral and some music video popped up along with articles but nothing like you provided. That was funny though, perfect post [emoji106].

That’s so cool! Baby plate fungia was the first thing I thought of too.

Just sprouted a fourth. [emoji16][emoji108]

They have begun to separate from the old skeleton. What should I do if anything other than monitor ?

So cool, thanks for the update.

Nothing much to do I don’t think. You can target feed with small size food since they have a mouth. When they separate and fall off, turn them right-side-up if they land upside-down.

These guys are furious eaters and love the usual Mysis oyster feast and stuff like reef roids. They all caught up to each other and now are moving out.
View from above, looks to be nearly detached.

I'd consider ripping that mat of zoas off the skeleton that these babies are budding from. They'll encrust over the skeleton and you'll end up not having any more buds.

They will jump off when bigger. That is what mine did about nickel size to quarter size.

Dead on size wise, good call.

Skeleton now for sure.
