> Hi,
> Approx 8 months ago, I wrote the group asking for help with 2 short
tentacle
> plate (Fungia dania) corals that were dying.
> The flesh was pealing down to the skeleton all over. I received many
answers
> from the group. The best answer I received was to leave the coral alone,
do
> not remove it after it appears to be dead.
> I followed this advice. After a few months, just as I was going to remove
> them and throw then away, I saw what appeared to be either mushrooms or
> anenome's growing on the skeleton. I noticed that the colors where similar

> They were rather beautiful so I left them in the tank, can't throw away a
> living thing. as they grew they looked more and more like anenome's
swaying

> I took some digital shots and showed them to my lfs(Aquating Treasures, in
> Queens, NY), he also thought that they were anenome's and started to

noticed

> I saw him today and he confirmed what I had thought, My "dead" Fungias
gave
> birth to new Fungias. Probably 50 or more per disk.
> Now the big question, what happens next. do they break off of the parent
> Fungia and develop as separate corals?
> To all of you that have helped me in the past, Thank you.
