Hi Bro,

I am not sure it can be considered moving but due to the fact that Lobophyllia is capable of expanding and reducing their tissue, I surmise that they should be able to move a few CM.

But if yours move several CM in a short period, you may want to check for urchin or worms hidden beneath your coral.

I have experienced one moving away from my green star polyps several times.

Below is a link to another reefer's similiar experience:
