Will a scolis skin grow back to the skeleton. A friend gave me this guy to see if it would do better with me and it seems to have stopped letting go of flesh but now I'm curious as to what next. Please let me know. Do I need to do anything to help it?

Btw it does have polip extension going on still.

If it starts to grow it will not just simply grow over the old skeleton and return to normal. In my experience it will form a new head off to the side and slowly get bigger as it grows it will slowly cover the old skeleton.
 
It can grow back although that one looks quite bad. They do like to be fed.
I have been feeding reef roids and reef chilli as well as amino acids. This tank is meant for coral recovery as it's my frag tank. I also dose two part fusion in it.
 
nice.. scolys are pretty hardy really. If the other corals in the tank are thriving then I bet it will improve. If you can grow acans then you can grow a scoly.

All of my acans open up really big and my hammer and zoa extensions in the same tank is ridiculous.
 
This is a 50/50. I personally would break off bad part but keep it in tank and superglue the end of the skeleton of the good portion. Moderate, nit high flow is best for these guys
