    When I was moving my reef in to the 72 bow front, I had grabbed the Frogspawn to place it and I felt crushing. Now I see what it was, it must of been a new forming head. Some of the calcified skeleton is still hanging on the Coral that you can see hanging in the pic, what's going to happen with this? Is there anything I should do to help it?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    In my opinion the best thing you can do is leave it be.

    Thanks Corailline! I wasn't sure what I should do with it, to bad! I am sure that was going to be a new head. I got to see how new heads form with my Duncan and Candycane, but not with the Frogspawn. hopefully it goes back to work.

    The tissue is all stretched out from the weight of the skeleton, it looks like it hurts, hahaha! I also thought if maybe I cut it off that I could frag it, but I don't know how they frag Frogspawn.

    Yup let it heal it self. Keep An eye on it for signs of infection.

    Its one of those let nature take its course and if it dies it dies. If it survives it survives, you don't wanna stress it out anymore than it may be.
