1 week today since I cut the Scoly and I can see new flesh starting to grow. I still also see feeder tenticals out every night. Once both sides have fully formed mouths they will be ready for me to cut them again. Which will be 4 pieces at that point. I will repeat this process one more time giving me a total of 8 scoly frags in the end to allow to round back out.

Here's another update on the reverse bleeding apple Scoly I cut roughly 4 weeks ago. New tissue has grown on both pieces and starting to cover the freshly cut edge and both pieces have now got fully formed mouths again. Based on what I'm seeing and how well they have healed I will most likely be making the 2nd cuts in 2-3 weeks from now. I have attached pictures so you guys can see the progression.
