Coral damaged by triggerfish

There were a number of these Acropora corals that had suffered serious triggerfish damage. Triggers are sharp eyed enough to see small crabs that live among the branches and hungry enough to pick apart, one branch at a time, the entire center in order to get to them. The table was over 50cm in diameter.
