just looks like exposed skeleton. Look when I fragged my micronesian torch you can see how thr skeleton got exposed. I'm thinking a result of that. How long have you had the frag? how old is your tank? the polyps don't look very extended. (skeleton exposure at the bottom)

I still think it's a place where it had been fragged, mine has been fragged for a couple of months and looks like that still. At any rate I don't think it'd splitting because there isn't too much elongation of the head that I can tell. Do the polyps extend very far, or do they look stringy like in the picture all the time?
