Hey I have this Sinularia that all of a sudden I noticed like a giant hole in it. Not sure how long its been there. Fell over and I moved it. That's when I noticed it. Any idea? I QT everything but not sure it something is munching on it. Just Tangs, anthias and wrasses in the tank

I don’t know of any fish that would eat Sinularia. My guess is it could be a home for a boring crab or other invert/crustacean.

I'm just hoping nothing is killing it.

If for some reason the hole gets bigger or your Sinularia starts to melt and look like brie cheese, you can always cut a section of the coral in the healthy area and it will grow. Then just remove the dead and decaying part of it.
