Thank you. Cade.
It's a pocillopora sp., we have had a few events where little ones have been popping up all over the place. One of the few corals that spawns in captivity.

Errr...uhhhh....eeeeee...they melted .

We pushed our water change a little to late due to my midterm schedual and a few of the zoas weren't to happy with me. That or it was the Kent carbon, none of the SPS were affected though so I'm kind of leaning towards it being my fault.

Anyone got Darth Mauls ?

Crap! That's one thing that drives me nuts about Zoas. They can be happy as a pig in **** and then melt. Sooo frustrating. I have Darth Mauls...3 small polyps. I have a little patch of about 12 I think that got buried by my Jawfish and I didn't notice in time. That was probably 18 months ago. I just got this new frag a month ago.

Next time I'm in Edmonton I will have to stop by RC & see if there are any there. I've concluded I'm pretty much crazy for collecting zoas, maybe I should stop by that support group we got going.

Sifting gobies are banned from my main tank for this exact reason.
