Scoly Coral Burying itself???

[SaltLife77]

Has anyone had a Scoly Coral bury itself in the sand? I have one that is doing this and I cannot figure out why.

Any info appreciated. Thank you!

I already righted it and placed it just out of the sand bed . But basically it was turning itself upside down. So just a Scoly upside down in the sand bed.

I don't think scolies can move, or dig...
A pic would be interesting...

Does this happen overnight? Do you have urchins or sand sifting gobies?

It does happen overnight and I do have a tuxedo urchin and a YWG, as well as a Pearly Headed Jawfish, but I think he is innocent. I moved the Scoly to a different area of the sand bed and the same thing happened. So, I moved it out of the sand bed last night, a little bit above the sand bed and fully away from the YWG. All went well overnight. I think the YWG was just not cool with it.
