Inflated Leptoseris Flesh

[SinisterKestrel]

Got a weird one, leptoseris (or maybe pavona, it came unlabeled from the vendor) in a frag tank at work forming an inflated growth. Not seen this in an sps before, I've seen lots of examples of "bounced" corals in softies and lps. I wouldn't consider this one of them as it seems to be made of multiple individual polyps connected by the coenosarc. Anyone ever seen this before, any idea what would trigger this.

I have one similar to yours. Mine is caused by vermitid snails. I get similar growth forms on my plating montys also from the vermatids.

vermatids! I have monti digi's and some plating psammacora doing the same thing. My forest fire digi is starting to look like an octopus...
