Howdy,

Something unusual. My mertens carpet has decided to move to the top of the tank for light I would assume. It is now laying partially on a nest of bubble tips. Neither genus seems to care, so I’m leaving them as is. I was pretty surprised. Has anyone else had this experience?
 
Anyone in the #reefsquad ever been in a similar situation?
 
It wouldn't be the first time I've heard of or seen this. I would expect the BTA to move just from being blocked, which they typically don't like.
