The white tips are where the skeleton is being added to before new polyps grow on it. The skeleton is almost white under the pink plops so far as I know its normal. Don't mean to disagree with you CR but here is a photo of mine when I first bought it 2.5 months ago and its grown at least 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch since, and as it grows the tips stay white. So I figure if it was a problem they both would be dead by now. _________ I was always taught to respect my elders, but it keeps getting harder to find one. Every morning is the dawn of a new error. I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Last edited by gazog; 03-15-2008 at 09:55 AM.
