today as i was cleaning my tank a rock fell on my frog spawn and broke off one of the heads when i picked up the rock it was crushed :( i did manage to glue it back but the skeleton was to badly crushed it is still there with color will it make it or will i just have to say goodbye to him not my week:(
 
I’ve found frogspawn to be very resilient.....I’ve dropped rocks, overdosed chemicals, had low salinity and mine have all survived and are continuing t9 thrive.

Keep up your regular maintenance, parameters, etc. and be patient - sometimes it took mine 6-8 weeks to fully recover
 
I had a candy cane with 4 heads fall off the live rock outside of the tank to the floor from about 6 feet up and it looked like a garbage truck ran over it. Put it back in and hope for the best. Here is mine as of last week. Hope it bounces back for you. There is still a chance.

the bone of it crushed looked like sand but after one hour of surgery and super glue ......the bad thing is i did get super glue on polyps it was the only way to restore it but will the bone be okay litlerly the coral was like sand and polyps were the only thing keeping it together :( looked like if i had crushed a snail with my foot

u can still see the coral has cracks on it in the bone and well polyps have super glue :(
 
Sucked mine up with a 1/2 siphon while doing a water change... completely mangled it ..took about 2 weeks but it totally bouned back and recovered... they're pretty tough.
 
I think I may have just left it like it was. It may recover, but all the superglue may hamper recovery more than help it. Time will tell. Good luck with it.
 
sorry its already glued fin
and salty film folks yeah but i got some of it polyps glued as well ill see how it looks today
