Some of the non-clowfish hosting carpet species, S. tapetum and others, do naturally divided, others do not. Can't really commend on these unless I know the species.

If you have a picture and post it we can comment. As is, this is the best I can do.
Thank you for your response! I honestly do not know the specific species. I have included an image of it during the initial splitting process before it began to close and die (I hope I did the image sharing correctly). I look forward to hearing your thoughts!
