Through-out history there have those epic battles.
Ali vs. Frazier
Hagler vs. Leonard
Da Bears vs. F5 Tornado (Gotta Love SNL)
The Rock 'n' Roll Express vs. The Midnight Express!!!
Ok I threw those last two in there for a laugh.:lmao:
When I came home from work this evening I found my Acan Echinata had fallen polyps down onto my Hammer Coral. We all have seen the damage that Hammers, Frog Spawn and Torch Corals can inflict when another coral stray within sweeper range. If you kept an Acan close to other corals, you've probably seen the damage an Acan can dish out as well. So, my first thought when I saw the corals laying there, was "I wonder who took the worst beating?"

This happened in about 3 hours time. I came home at lunch to get some more painkillers and the Acan was still in its usual spot.
 
Wow. I have never seen anything beat a euphylia. I but an orange Acan Echinata in the middle of of an ugly brown encrusting monti that will not die by my hand ( I actually used a screw driver to scrape it of the rock and it is now back almost 100%) It has cleared a one inch area completely around it.
