If some of my corals get stressed the slime out and it looks just like that. Mainly for me it's a pagoda cup, pineapple tree, and my plating Monti that slime. Hasn't happened in a really long time, but when i was still moving stuff around and placing corals it would happen.

Thanks! Yeah my " friend" called me back laughing wanted to know if I was freaking out and posted on the forum. They got me. I guess it's fun to get the chief going every now and then. But Monday will be pay back haha.

My torch does that when I move him. Don't worry about to.
