I have a pocillapora which is starting to touch a nearby montipora digita, the battle is being won by the pocillapora and the monti has tissue damage, it has lost about a third inch of tissue at the point of contact.
The question is wether I should leave alone or remove the branch which is damaged . Next I wonder wether to frag the pocillapora at the area adjacent to the monti . If the future growth will be in the same direction , then maybe it would be easier to make a clearance through the monti instead?,, will subsiquent regrowth be in the same direction as the fragged bit??
Any comments gratefully received..
