My Sun Coral was MEAN!!!

It bites..... (I couldn't get the stick back)

And it often talked back....

Forgive my odd "video". Once upon a time video cameras we something you put on your shoulder and saw at weddings only. I thought I was fancy having one of the first digital cameras. These are stills I pieced together all high tech. LOL.

When I bought it, it looked friendly....

Then one day I noticed it whispering to the leopard wrasse.....

The coral grew over a bivalve. When it was feeding, a part of the coral would drop down as it opened it's shell. At first I light I was seeing things.... then I stuck the rigid tubing in there.... nope, not seeing things. We didn't actually know what was really under there until a few years later when it died.

That's its feeding cap over it, BTW. I don't dress up my corals or anything. LOL.
