Default It's a sad day

Looks like I have to frag my hyndowhachamacallit. lol I can never remember its spelling. It's been turning white on the base and now this is growing. So hopefully I can save a few pieces and start over ......sigh

Cut All the dead off....take the longest cut side and zip tie to a piece of rock.....a little zip tie or even thin thin fishing line or thread...no glue... Don't put putty on it or glue or put it on a "frag" disc.

Put it where it gets strong current...but not like a direct storm. but enough to keep crap from settling on anything.

oh and...hydnophora....

This is the size of the colony in its glory



And now the base is going going gone I've tried to remove effected areas but it keeps sliming over



Who knows if the frags survive it may grow bigger and better next time
