Do you just cut them off at the base and leave a bit of the stalk that was connecting it to the rock? or do you try and get under them? This is my problem see if I can explain it better.
The polyps do not seperate like they do with the PDs, the polyps of the Nuclear greens although seperate are are connected. The areas between the polyps there is a thin tissue that when cut really slimes up and leaks fluid. I can cut PDs and the polyp once glued looks just like it did be fore cutting but the Nuclear greens really loze most of there size. I made 3 frags all before cutting were the size of dimes and after cutting they were a 1/3 of there pre-cut size. In the spaces between the polyps the entire rock is covered in the tissue and that is what is throwing me. It seems that when I cut the ployp the fluid that was filling the polyp seems to flush down into the tissue covering the rock and reducing the size of the polyp once cut. Of the 3 frags I made 2 or which have been sent off the polyps were after almost 2 months of healing were still no where near their original size......I undersrand the stress and all but these things the way they are growing on the rock is nothing like the PDs...I have another frag that is healing now that was the size of a dime and is now smaller then half an eraser hean and is actully smaller then even my Samhains which are the smallest polyp I have.....I was just wondering....
