Frag it or will it regrow?

[LovesDogs_CatsRokay]

An evil cowrie snail ate the middle of my birdsnest frag as well as a handful of zoas and other corals. Needless to say he’s gone now. I’m wondering if th me the flesh of the birds nest will grow back or if I should frag the healthy parts? It’s looked like this for the past couple weeks, it’s not getting any worse.

Easier to frag then you'll get two.

 

[mtraylor]

I agree

Thanks everyone! Fragging it is!

Wait for it to heal up a bit first. There is no hurry if the damage is not spreading - if it is spreading, then you have no choice but to frag now. Healed corals can handle cutting better.

Make sure when you frag, try one frag from the very tip of the Digi, like 1/4 inch if possible. The tips may have the best chance for survival.

I think you have no choice. You may still lose it

What kind of cowrie was it?

A money cowrie. Took out part of that birdsnest plus completely destroyed a different birdnest frag, cleared 4 plugs of zoas and took a chunk out of a blasto. All within a couple days.

Never heard of that happening. Mine are model citizens.

Yeah me neither. I guess it was starving. It started chowing down the day we brought it home. My husband said it started sucking on his hand when he took it out of the bag

I would cut it in the following places. You get 4 frags!

Wow, so the root of all evil was really just a reference to a snail after all.
