See if there are and nudibranchs around it, my frag of it had one and it kept my frag to only three polyps. After I removed it, they went nuts and I had over forty polyps in about three weeks.

Once you get it figured out you'll be asking how to get rid of them. I love green star polyps, but they do "grow on you" if you know what I mean.
Check your water parameters against the growth requirements of the coral, see if your lacking anywhere. |

make sure they have sufficient flow also. my buddie gave me a large chunk of his gsp and his continued to grow where mine didnt. then i gave it more flow and it's doing good now.

Do you have it on a rock or sitting in the sand? If on a rock, has it attached?

Mine grows like crazy as well. It likes really high flow.
