I've only had it 2 days so it's hard to compare, i'm just about to go to
work (where the tank is) i'll let you know. It looked alot healthier &
fuller yesterday and some of the loose tissue from the damage had
dissapeared.I'll take some more pics today and compare them.

Thanks for that, i'll keep a close eye on it, got a new camera too so have
taken some pics of it if you could give your opinion as to how severe the
damage is? Thanks

Yes they are able to heal, and yes they could get an infection. The
healthier it is, the better the chance of not getting an infection.

If it gets an infection, get an ear wax removal bulb, and blow off the
infected area. Don't blow too hard, as you don't want to force the
rotting tissue deep into the coral skeleton, but you want to blow it off.

Just had my order filled. it looks nice but there seems to be some
receding of the tissue mat around the end of the skeleton and a bit of
transport/bagging damage to some of the polyps :-( does anyone know how
well these heal and if there is any likely problem with infection?

Thanks

Hello there people! I was just wondering apart from the usual
calcium/alkalinity needed to keep these are there any special needs for
them, I am getting one delivered next week and would like to know in
advance if i need to stock up on anything?

Thanks in advance
Dave
