Invy Ng Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Hi, my sun coral has 2 heads melted away. The rest are still doing ok. Still feeds. I'm wondering if there is a possibility that they can grow back. Was told that growing is faster since they don't need to grow skeletons...

Invy Ng Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 Hi bro, that's good news, but even if there is no meat at all in the "socket" ? Where will the "baby come from. As I've experienced that this happens in different types of soft corals like torch or even gonios, revealing skeleton. And soon algae will encrust on it, and it seems like game over. So in all these cases, flesh can grow with good water parameters? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
