Coral damage

WannaBeAReefer · 04-17-2002, 06:40 PM

Apparently a toadstool leather of mine got "bulldozed" into a green star polyps colony. I reset the leather when I discovered it but within the next day or so the leather seemed to get "burned."

Does anyone know if the polyps grow back once the leather has been damaged?

It may in time, I have a toadstool leather that had minor damage when I bought it and since then it has healed quite a bit. Each time it has sloughed it has healed more and more.

Time will tell however, this is just my observation with mine and doesn't mean it is so with all of them.

Leathers are generally pretty tough. As long as there is still a good bit of unburned tissue, it should recover.
