Should I cut a frat after eaten?

[moz71]

So I have a stylophora frag that was attacked and flesh taken from a filefish that went rogue. the base trunk was most kept intact but the upper part gone. I decided to leave it but seems the bare skeleton is getting algae on it. Should I cut it off or let it go? if so how due I cut? Never did it before. First photo immediately after eaten. Second one with algae growing on arms. I guess you can almost tell where there is some flesh as the algae is not growing. Thank you

Ise a coral feeder to blow the algea off and try to feed it

Sump the filedish

Yup, I would frag that, it usually goes fast that stuff.
We don’t want an algae on the skeleton.

I did! He was in there for few days then found him inside cabinet dried up. Poor thing

Those things are hit and miss.
Problem solved.

Is is simply just cutting it with pliers or something.?

I had a monti digi that went through the same thing. It’s been a few months and it’s slowly growing back over the old skeleton. It has fought off the algae and overgrown it. There’s hope for dying corals if properly cared for.
