4 weeks ago (the morning after feeding) my elegance baled. After speaking to some others and doing some water testing and what-not, it was decided that the cause may have been some naughty hermit crabs attempting to take its food. I have removed the crabs. My poor elegance is still surviving but I’ve had to restrain it with a coral cover so it doesn’t drift off. It has been 4 weeks almost 5, and this coral still opens still has nice color still eats on feeding day. Will it ever grow its foot back?

It opens up very big during the day

Then it closes at night just like always

This picture it early morning just as the lights are coming on.
 
Sad issue - I'm not sure its related to the crabs but - yeah - keep it alive - It should build a new shell
