These have shown up on my lobophyllia. I have had this piece for over ten years.

Interesting growth.
Bumping for ideas.
I will throw out that I have heard through urban sw myths that's it's a response to lighting.
 
Looks like it’s “bouncing” which supposedly is caused by lighting or so it’s believed.
 
yeah like what's already been stated it definetly seems to be "bouncing" and not anything malevolent, very cool!
 
Thanks. That is what it looked like to me. I wonder why it happened now and is only on the one head.
 
Bounce lobo, sell it for $1000 per head
In all seriousness though I wouldn't worry about it

PS I believe your coral is a pachysepta not a lobo
