Virbrio. Nasty nasty nasty stuff. Nearly put me off raw oysters for good, and certainly ruined an entire trip to New York.

Some of my sps colonies are bordered by mushrooms and/or ricordia and none of the sps are stressed either. The surface of the coral dies where the shrooms meets, but then the sps will start to grow around and over the shrooms. It creates a nice natural border. My vote is for another stressor!
