Got this plate at the big SPS meeting this fall. It was full and beautiful, and it thrive for a while in my tank.
Then I experienced a few setbacks, and it started getting unhappy. The final straw was when it went a week without ATO and my SG hit 1.028.
I had basically written it off. it’s been shriveled like this for over a month.
But over the last few days, it started coming back. I was so excited!!!
...and then there’s the “buuut...”
while it was shrunken back, some mystery Zoas started popping out on the sections where the flesh had retreated.
so, what should I do? Let nature takes it’s course? Or, do you think the plate will come back, and so I should rip the Zoas off the base? At this size, do you think they would survive a transplant onto a plug?
thoughts appreciated!!
