I ordered a zoa combo rock a month or so ago and it got thrashed in shipping everything was ripped from their frags and most of the zoas were disintegrated on arrival. How ever the clove polyps had gotten separated from the rock and was floating around in the smelly water. So to say the least they took a beating. I acclimated and placed them in a rock crevice they are doing great however there is a really weird and quite large growth right in t he middle of them it almost looks like a tumor. Does anyone know what this is? Ot what I should do about it.

Look like standard growth stolons from what I can see. Cloves shoot off runners which the polyps emerge from, kind of like caulerpa does.
