Well this is a first. Came home from work to find a rather large frag of leptastria completely covered in the stingers/feeders of a lobo. I guess the glue didn't stick and the lobo got hungry. I assume the leptastria will be dead once the lobo releases. I thought it had grabbed my turbo snail.
 
Your coral is an Acanthastrea pachysepta not a Lobo, which is why this happened. Pachyseptas are very aggressive compared to true Lobophyllia.
 
You'll want to get some separation between some LPS, those mesenterial fillaments can reach good distances. Sorry about the frag though.
