I found yellow polyp needs feeding (quite a lot) to get it to spread.

Funny you should say that because I have button polyps and yellow colony
polyps and they just won't spread. I want them to a little but they just
don't. How long did it take them to start spreading?

See, I liked them originally. They were cute. Then they
started....spreading. And spreading. And spreading. It's become what can
only be termed an infestation, making very real for me the lesson that
European reefers call these little darlings 'pest anemones'.
I have tried mashing them. I have tried squirting them with Kalk. I
have tried covering them with rockwork, but they still seem to get enough
light to persist....tell me...how does one murder a colony of button
polyps?

And before you mention it, the rock they're taking over is close to 30
pounds, over a third of the total LR in the tank.
