Ok... Wondering if everyone has experienced this before. I have a bubble coral on my substrate that had a acanthophyllia about 8-10 inches away. On two occasions, it worked its way over to the bubble coral. I had no clue those could move! And i'm not crazy... I actually SAW it move in one occasion and it continued to lean in the direction of the bubble coral. I told the people at the LFS and they sort of laughed. After I moved it, it started moving back towards the bubble coral AGAIN!!!! I finally moved it about 2 feet away and it stopped.

Anyone know anything about this? Had a similar experience??
 
Possibly a little, but more so leaning heavily in that direction. And there is low flow on the substrate so I can't imagine that influenced it. I actually saw it move!! Kind of a short stutter in that direction. Very weird...

Maybe its an anemone in acanthophyllia clothing :D .
