whats going on with my toadstool(pics)

The last 5 days or so my toadstool which is always open has some kind of infection(my guess). Any ideas what's going on? If you scrape away the brown skabb it looks like something chewed on it.

Im not sure but it looks very similiar to my toadstool markings and mine is hosting a couple of flatworms...they move VERY slowly and sometimes not at all and they do look like a scab. I do hope im wrong though cuz flatworms are a pain in the a$$

It could have been caused by a crab. Just 4 days ago I noticed the same with my toadstool, I knew that something has been chewing on it and its polyps. Taking the coral out of the tank for inspection... I found a very small crab under the coral's head, it's white and kinda "flat" that it's very hard to see.
