Lobo behaviour

[Marsh980]

Hi all,

I’ve only been in the hobby 3 months and still learning about coral behaviour outside the standard information you can read online.

This is my lobo and I’ve not seen it like this before. The ‘lobes ’ seem to have flattened out, is that to give as much surface area to catch floating food.

Cheers

Could be a feeding response. Give it some food, and see if it puffs back up tomorrow

Are you sure that is a lobophyllia?

It was sold to me as a lobo. What do you think it is?

Looks like a lobo now - must be the feeding response. Mine only do it at night so I don't see it often.
