chalice rescue

[reef kid96]

I recently purchased a 1 1/2 frag of chalice from my local fish store healthy and beautiful. Then I go away on business for 3 days come back and my rose bubble tip anemone decided to split and move beside it burning up about 1/4 of the frag what should I do? Leave it? Cut it?
All help is appreciated.

It will probably be ok - nature heals well usually on its own. However, make sure all your parameters are dead-on. The coral doesn't need any other stressors or else it may start to go. If you're very concerned about it, you can cut the damaged tissue off to give the coral a clean start, and possibly less chance of infection. You can also put a fine bead of super glue gel along the cut tissue to prevent any high flow from lifting and possibly detaching the tissue from the skeleton.

I would also feed it about 3x per week until it is healed. Good luck!
