Swollen up Goni

[Chinookflyer]

I wondered if it is usual to have a Goni coral swell up like this. I am sure it is OK - it is very healthy - but I have never seen it expand like this. It had a good feed of plankton last night, that might have something to do with it. My long tenticle plate coral often does this - but I have never seen the Goni do it before.

Heck I'll bump that one again, I've never seen anything like that out of a Goni.

All back to normal today.

Just like you thought. Funny how the corals almost do the same things.

My Goni did this today about 3 hours after a big feeding of Raw Oyster Eggs (R. O. E.). These two pics are two minutes apart. Another few minutes it started unpuffing and going back to normal.
