Lobo in fight mode

[JoJosReef]

My lobo keeps releasing mesenterial filaments. I don't know if something is attacking it or if it senses other coral (like the octo and torch) and is talking tough. I moved it away from the octo and torch because they were sending out sweepers, but they aren't coming in range of the lobo now. Anyone have their lobo do this regularly?

Hope that gets fixed soon. Nice GIF!

From my experience he’s sensing the others nearby and trying to attack.
Lobos are AGGRESSIVE especially the orange ones (which recently were reclassified as acanthastrea pachysepta)

No but I have a scolymia doing this and I moved it to an opposite side of the tank and am waiting to see if it stops.
