Hi all, I've had this rainbow chalice frag for around a month and have been seeing some decent growth. A few days ago I noticed a weird color in the center of the chalice, which became evident that it was a piece of wobbling flesh. Today, the flesh came off as I turkey basted it, revealing skeleton.

Does anyone know what may have caused this?

What should I do to maximize the chalices healing process?

The frag is under decent light levels, would it be possible that algae starts growing in that hole?

Thank you in advance.

Following along

Noticed this on one of my acans too

Turns out that my goni was stinging it from the side .

Have moved it to a new spot but flesh seems to be slowly receding.
