I have a hammer coral that's U-shaped, but one night when I was aquascaping I moved the coral to the corner of the tank and left it overnight. When I came back the next night, I noticed I buried the curved part of the U in the substrate, so this part died. Now my hammer has two separate fleshy parts on each end of the U-shape, and the skeleton in the middle. Looks pretty crappy.
I was thinking about breaking the hammer in half, but will this kill it? It is all one long coral (it would be like 10 inches long if it were straight), but if you say that you should not cut the bud in half. Is this considered a bud?
