I have had this, what the LFS said was a devils finger for about 4 months. All of the pictures i have seen on the net show them with polyps that will come out. The entire time i have had it i have never seen a polyp. There will be some small bumps that show up about every day but nothing more. I know it isnt sick and all of my water parameters are ok. My question is, is this thing ok or do they do this when they are getting enough light and dont need to filter feed. I have it it a moderate flow area. I dont think it is dieing because it has probably doubled in size since i got it and it will "shed its skin", i guess that is what you call it, about once a month. Everyting else in the tank is doing fine. I know that the fish could have caused them to close up but that is the way that it looks all the time. Anyone know whats wrong?
