My montipora is growing to large. I tried to cut and break some off, but I think rock work will fall apart. My ricordea is underneath,and it is not growing. Will it work to glue frag pieces on part of montipora??

I don't think it will work to glue anything to a living coral. When the tissue that it is glued to dies, the frag will come loose. Looks like the monti is irritating the pocillopora next to it too. I've found monti caps to be pretty brittle. If you're careful, you should be able to trim it back without damaging the rock work.

One thing though. Have you asked the hawk how he feels about losing his throne? ;)

Thanks! What is a good way to trim the montipora? Should I try to cut it or break it?
What is the white blotch on montipora? It’s darkened up since other day?
