    I'm definitely stuck on this one
    my cabbage leather is splitting and has stretched out and attached itself to another rock. thats fine and all but here is the problem while it is splitting and is stretched out the main rock it is attached to is slipping down and now i cant even get it to sit because of how the coral has stretched, so i need some feedback, should i frag it or should i just wait it out? i can see exactly where it is splitting but i know nothing about fragging cabbage leathers so any advice is welcomed. ill add some pics so you can see
    (Its not opened up yet because it just shed)
    the last one i moved it out onto the sand so you can see it better

    If the rock is not in danger of falling and you like how the coral looks on the other rock then I would leave it alone. If your not happy with the coral on the other rock then move it. Has it already attached to the other rock. If its only slightly attached you can pull it off. I twill be pissed for a week but will recover. It depends how attached it is

    After reading a 2nd time I would then pull it off of the new rock it attached to. it will recover in time.
