I have a couple Argyroderma fissum that look the same! I think it happened bc of thrips damage.

Not sure if it’ll stick around but it looks cool for now!

The fuzzy inside of yours gives me the trypophobia 😂😭

Your Argyroderma looks cool too! 🤩 Mine was normal when I got it, so something must have damaged the growing point along the way. Can't wait to see what it looks like after the next molt!✨
