A few weeks ago I got an Elkhorn Monti...nice piece it was.....WELL...I now have 2

My helpful husband was doing something for me a week or so ago, and "accidentally" knocked into it and broke it......OMG I was mortified at first
....BUT look...NOW I have 2 nice growing pieces
Here it is when I first got it

I hadn't posted about this because I was too upset with everything else I had going on....BUT now I am happy cause I see they are both going to make it..and both are showing nice growth sprouts

get used to it. the bigger they grow/more you have the more you will accidently break. I've accidently broke off pieces of EVERY single branching sps I have save a stylo which branches are thick. branching monti's seem the most fragile. think I've broke pieces of my two montipora digitatas at least 5 times each and toss the pieces (usually too small to grow out) in the sump.
