I have had this Purple-Tipped Green Stem Branching Hammer since May and its been doing so well its gotten bigger and splitting. But when I had left to do work I had left it for someone to take care of for 2 weeks and when I came back the algae has gone crazy. Thats when my hammers werent extending like before. Then I started dosing flux rx by jet blue two weeks ago and did not do my weekly waterchange. Two days ago i did a water change. Today this morning it was smaller then it was. When I looked closely its mouth was open like ive never seen before. Half of it is melting and I can see the inside of its mouth.
