need advice

ive a rose bubble thats split recently and tho early days it seems its split into 3, the nem parted roughly across the middle with a big left section and big right section but after the split there is also a very small middle section, whilst the left/right sections have shuffled/healed somewat and are now looking healthy with re inflating etc the small middle somewat crammed in the rock section has not done anything but deflated its tenticles and not moved in any way, should i expect a die off of this small middle bit and if so how long shall i wait before maybe removing this bit if theres no movement or any type of activaty from it?

heres a picture of how things developed, you can see the small bundle of tenticles in the middle crammed between rocks

Hi there, give it a week or two before doing anything. In a week try giving it a little bit of food and see if it takes it. It will take a little while for it to form a new mouth and the splitting takes alot of energy, so you may not see anything for a while. Well done on the split though, you must be doing somthing right :D
