Brain Coral Predators
Can anyone identify the predators to the trachyphyillia brain coral? Mine has simply vanished. I have a decent clean up crew; but can not find any remains at all.

Yes. The brain lifted itself from the skeleton and moved around the sand bed and then vanished.

I have several emerald crabs and hermit crabs. Could these be predators?
