Condy got caught in the powerhead... and the Chili Coral Likes It!

[phippsj]

I woke up this morning to find that our Condy anemone had crawled inside of our powerhead. All that was left was some piece of the foot going in circles around the inside. That just blew my mind... I did not figure there was any way it could get inside the powerhead.

Well, one of the interesting things is that the Chili Coral, which normally shrinks up and retreats when the lights go on, decided to stay out. I actually saw pieces of the condy tips in its extensions. Then I noticed all the other corals seem to be enjoying themselves as well. Not what I was expecting (I actually though the dead Condy would poison everything).

Anyways, here are some pics of the corals. Aside from 8.4 ph and .5 phosphate, everything else seems OK. Nitrates are undetectable as is amonia and nitrite.
