dandelion Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 My digitata touched the back wall and is now spreading along it. Normally I wouldn't mind but it is getting close to where my return is and I would like to keep some clearance. What's the best way of doing that? Link to comment
RayWhisperer Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Can't you just pop it off with a screwdriver? Link to comment
dandelion Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 I don't want to damage it too bad though.... Just want it to not get too close, but keep growing in other directions. Can't you just pop it off with a screwdriver? Link to comment
ajmckay Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 seems like it would work to just snap off the branches before they reach the return? Sort of like trimming a tree! Link to comment
brandon429 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 If that was mine it would be fixed this way Any sps that well adapted to growth can heal from pruning. I would drain the tank and gouge it out by using a serrated expendable steak knife making a clean cut dividing line from the main mass and then just destroy off the isolated island part between the clean cut and the return. Healthy sps in clean low BOD tanks have no trouble healing from wounds and cuts and parrotfish bites. Link to comment
