My blasto got knocked over by something and fell face flat onto the sandbed.. It has been like that for ard 2-3 days as I'm always in camp.

When I came home just now and overturned it, the polyp appeared to be kinda melted, exposing its spiny structure. The other polyps are fine but expanding not as 'fleshy' as before..

Will it recover overtime? So sad to see such a beautiful blasto ending up like this.. It was growing well, almost up to the size of my fist when fully expanded and now like this :cry2:

Heres how it look before
