tentacles and are feeding (once I quickly defrosted the frozen 'coral
food' (plankton) I had for them - I wasn't quite ready yet!). Looking
back at my notes these corals are feeding ~3-4 days earlier than the
last cruise I was on.........so keep all those fingers crossed for
them to weather out this storm we're in and get building skeletons!
And - we did just manage to do a trawl - no coral, but some cute
anemones! Another one about to go in too, about the only thing we can
do right now and the waves are building, so probably not for much
longer.

Truth to tell--I had never thought about 'baby' corals. It's nice to be able to keep on learning!
