Toadstool has reacted to a product I was using awhile ago (microbacter and algaefix) - has not recovered right- was very healthy and standing upright, now has been slumped over since the start of the above (the chemicals were a trial- and I stopped using the marine algaefix when I noticed the change in the toadstool... the microbacter I used as directed until finished) The toadstool was the only one affected - nothing else seemed to be bothered.
Anyway- now it has unattached from the rock at it's base...and has reattached from the length of it's stalk? Almost attaching fully along it's side.... and now is turning it's cap back up towards the light.
What can be done- to remedy the look / growth of the piece to recreate how it was.... or best to leave it be and let it decide where it will grow from here?
It continues to shed the waxy build up- and extend the polyps to feed.
I have looked online to see how to frag- but not sure if it will fully recover from the inital response to the algae rx.
(and yes, I know some of you will respond with what I have already heard from others locally...that this should not have had a bearing/effect on the coral...but it did...so- as wacky as it sounds- who suggests what to get my toadstool upright again- ?
Thanks- Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates !
