Hey all, first post so not sure if I’m quite doing this right, but I have a question. I have a torch, hammer, and frogspawn that all experienced polyp bailout and now just the skeletons remain. From my understanding, if there’s live tissue left (non-visible) then there’s a good chance they’ll end up regrowing from the skeletons. My question is, is there any specific signs to look for that there might be flesh and some hope they’ll come back? I thought I read somewhere that if the skeleton stays white there’s still flesh and if it turns brown it’s gone for good but I’m not sure how much truth there is to that. Thank you for any replies!
 
Mine, I give them the smell test and if they smell like rotting flesh - they get yanked, bleached and added to my "greatest hits" collection.
Hahaha sounds good, thanks for the reply!
