I know the pictures are small but this is the frag. It's about 1/2" in size.

how did you manage to cut through the soft tissue and how did you get it to heal. ive been wanting to frag my hammer but dont have a clue as to how.

Jwalters,
The piece I cut was just hanging down on the right side, It had a small piece of hard part (not sure what its called). then I just used scissors to cut the soft tissue. ( about 1/8" thick) I'm real happy on how it turned out.

I think it likes my dirty water. I've been fighting algae for the last 8 months, can't get rid of it. My corals and fish seem to like it. I think the DSB is the cause.

I think Eric Borneman would be very interested in talking to you about it:

Bad news. Last night went to bed new frag looked great. Today after work couldn't find him. Have search everywhere. I know when the elegance is disturbed they will close up. so I hoping its ok just closed up where I can't find it. I'm not giving up hope yet.
Just weird!!!! Uggggggg

Its 6:55 I did find him. He must of fell during the night, and was retracted until now. He has opened bigger than what picture shows in the second post.
