Hi,
I bought a new coral at the weekend, LFS said it was a Moon Coral. I have some fish that may not be completely reef safe however they have never bothered any of my other corals. When I added this new one though my Bi-Colour Angel and Bi-Colour Blenny were picking at it constantly. I assumed they were eating it so I isolated it in a container which still allows flow. Looking at it tonight though and it seems to have lots of worms growing out of it? They do not move. Does anyone know what this is? Is it part of the coral? I’m now wondering if this is what the fish were eating and not the coral? Thanks
