Possible fungia babies

Very cool on the Fungia babies. FYI, if you have a healthy Fungia and you get impatient you can just hack it up with a Dremel tool and a diamond cuttoff blade. Many years ago I had a coral (purchased at a shop, likely from the wild) of some sort die (not Fungia) but I left the rock in that the coral was on. After a while a very small Fungia grew out of the rock. It grew to maybe quarter sized and fell off. It continued to grow on the sand and a new one formed in the exact spot on the rock (there was a tiny bit of tissue left in the spot). This happened another 3-4 times over the space of a year or two until the spot on the rock (the Fungia factory) was somehow damaged. I've been propagating that coral ever since. I've had it at least 15-20 years. One very hearty coral, trouble is it's brown and no one ever wants it! I keep it for sentimental value though.
