I had accidentally hit one of my hammers last week during a water change and the one branch broke off; it was a clean break though and all looked fine with the main hammer. I put the broken piece in my other tank. This morning I looked in my tank and I noticed that the main stem is breaking into pieces the entire way up to the main head. I checked all my parameters (below) and they’ve been stable now for months. I haven’t moved the location of my corals in over a year and haven’t changed up the flow. I’m unsure what’s causing hammers to be brittle. All my corals seem to be fine, except the brittleness of the hammers. Video was taken right before it broke off, showing video so you can see the flow (hammer that broke is on the left, to the left of the Duncan).
