    I was placing my frogspawn in a new place and pushed to hard and the hard bottom portion shattered. What should I do is it going to die?

    not as long as it's not into "meat" area you should be fine' and may even take it and glue it back.
    Lfs places commonly cut/frag large colony's any way, you should be fine .
    keep good water flow on frogspawn/torch corals , they like that alot.

    make it "in-direct" meaning= slighty bank some water flow off the glass if you can
    what you hope to acheive is to defuse watter movement all round it ,

    I have a torch coral that's larger than a soft ball , ( which is of the same family )
    with 15 heads on it .
    and i have flow' just smoothly running by it' and banking it off the glass to get all of it lightly moving when its fully
    extended.

    you'll know when you have it right, it'll move with the current like a light breeze of air , get me ?
