when i left for work this morning i noticed my Echinata laying face down on my Lord. During the night a crab or something must have knocked the Echinata off its rock. I of course removed it, but it was almost if they were stuck together. So we will see when i get home. Anyone else experience this and who won.
 
echinata does have a nasty sting. I was moving corals last night in the tank as my acan lord colony was getting close to my favia brain and the feeder tenicals like always were out on the acan lord, talk about STICKY. They attachd to my finger enough to where you could feel it.
 
Update, the lord totally lost a couple of polyps and the echinata just some tissue loss. I am pretty sure the echinata will make a total recovery over the next couple of months. But the lord suffered much worse damage and there is just sheleton left. Luckily the damage on the lord is towards the back of the colony, so not such an eye sore.
All i can say is, these animals are amazing how they actually compete for space and will kill each other
