I felt really bad lopping a hand sized nepthia that was a shade tree in my tank. Really hard for me to mount something that sized and give away, if I could find a taker.I frag things and put it in the garbage..
I want a simple colt coral.. not easy to find local.. or maybe everyone else is putting them in the garbage too
But to answer your questions, they put them in bags as freebies?
It grew back pretty quick....I treat it like chaeto now, just keep enough around so I don't have to replace it.
