Hey guys
My orange hammer stung my glitter bomb goniapora. The area it stung looks damaged but the rest of it is ok and normal. Do I let it be and hope it heals or should I dip it in iodine?

attached a photo it’s right there lower middle where the polys aren’t extended.

Hi,

How long ago did it happen. I would let it be for now. I don’t see a dip doing anything that I can think of. Keep a watch for any signs of skeleton.

Hi

It happened on Tuesday. Seems like that spot polyp melted and saved the colony by detaching. That spot seems to be healing now.
 
Agreed that leaving it be for now may be best. Have you relocated either of them to prevent the stinging from happening in the future?
