This Lobophyllia coral was badly receded, as shown by the remaining pink skeleton. 14 July 2012
By only a month later, on 14 August 2012, the coral was mostly healed and regrowing.
About six months later, 6 January 2013, the coral was fully healed and growing well.
Although the coral’s growth rate was not ideal, by 11 August 2014, it had formed a second polyp. Coloration was also phenomenal.
In 2.5 years, this Lobophyllia coral went from nearly dead to thriving with a new polyp.
