New green tree

[Rostr02]

Unless you have AFLAC, I have pondered one to many times losing my baby toe to get 20 grand.

You're sick man....but to think at that rate, there's a new house in my shoes..lol.

I forgot. I came here to update. I thought it was safe to try to untie the frag and pulled it off the rock. It was like it attached to the fishing line too. Not as much of the base was attached as I thought. Anyways...retied and back to square one.

try cutting the fishing line and sliding it through without tugging on the frag?

[SaltyDawg]

When I tried to untie it I put 2 fingers on it and tried to pull the line between my fingers and it still popped off. I just poked it and it seems like it's attaching but I'll give it some more time before I cut it loose again. The frag lost a lot of the green color but has puffed up 3 or 4 times the size it was when I cut it. It's a pretty hardy critter and I'm sure it will be fine but it's taking soooo much longer than I hoped to recover. The piece I cut it from is doing awesome and has about 10 new polyps growing out of where I cut it. Here is some pics I took tonight.

I'm not sure why they sometimes take so long to attach and other times seem to do so in a couple days.

Looks like it is healing well though
