Not to vere too far off from track but I've seen Some members on here have chopped up elegance and other corals.

I had a welso brain coral that was in awesome shape and one day had a huge piece of rock fall on it, 1/4 of it was badly damages skeleton showing and flesh peeling back. I was so ****ed that happened and hoped for the worse, 2 weeks later it was healing itself and by the one month mark was back to normal.

I've seen lobos cut and the flesh healed quickly too, I do believe if you cut a coral in half it definately helps for it to be a clean cut so it can heal faster. I don't have the guts to cut pieces up nor do I want to take the chance on a nice show piece and maybe lose it.


But back to the FS post!

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
