Chalice vs favia

[Rmckoy]

These Mexican turbo snails are bad !
constantly bulldozing everywhere .
they knocked a Chalice over on top of the favia .
Assuming that part is dead

Epoxy/glue down the corals.

A little too late ...
moving forward is there anything I should do to save the rest of the favia colony ?
is shouldn’t spread ?

Just make sure all corals are secured or it will happen again. Ask me how I know .. lol. It shouldn’t spread. You could dose some aminos. And if it starts to look bad put it in lower light until it recovers.

Given the water parameters are good and stable, the coral should be able to recover from this. But if it keeps getting knocked down, it can eventually die.

I like to dip my corals in iodine just to be safe, after i frag or see them hurt/injured.
