Hello everyone
This is not a problem I have to report, but a curiosity on something that happens to my Montiporas sp. today.
I have almost all kind of Montiporas: encrusted, plated, branching, foliacious, and it's normal to see one colony retracts for different reasons, like an shrimp bothered them for example; But today I witness something unusual. All the encrusted species (sunset, rainbows, pokerstar, purple haze, orange sherbet, etc) and my Montipora digitata retracts themselves simultaneously. Nothing else was affected, all the Acroporas, stylophoras, Porites and LPS was acting normally.
My first reaction was to test everything immediately, and do a Major Water change just in case. After a couple of hours they go back to normal as my heart does too. And now, after everything is cool I'm curious is they "feel something" on the water that provoke that massive reaction ? Is this happens to anybody else?
