So had this wall hammer just over a week. And it’s completely melted off. Stripped back to the Skelton. No idea why, because got a frogspawn at the same time and that has been thriving.

my question is, do I get rid of the Skelelton or is there a change of regrowth?

Wall hammers are notoriously difficult. The polyp look to be a wall hammer, but I've never seen one for sale that small. Maybe it was fragged?

I'd give it a week...but it's most likely a goner. Sorry.

That’s what I’ve been reading. It’s not the end of the world and it’s a learning curve. With the skeletal remains, shall I just keep an eye on any regrowth? Or just remove it after a week Or so
