A few days ago, I had a pocillopora frag (yes it has totally encrusted that frag plug and is even growing on the underside of the frag rack) make contact with a monti cap on the same frag rack and it pretty much melted the monti where it made contact.
I moved the monti but the poci has been really weird ever since, sending out wild tentacles every evening. I've never seen one of my poci's do anything like it, it's almost like it's been on a seek and destroy mission ever since it had a taste of monti cap! It seems to be able to reach further each night.
Is this normal behavior for regular green pocillopora? The picture doesn't really show the extent of its reach (at times it can about touch the next frag plug over). It's only doing it in the area where it had made contact with the monti, the rest of the coral is its usual green shag carpet.
I'll say one thing, it's motivated me to maybe scrape it off the frag rack before it takes over the world!
