Broken frag

Tried to break it off the plug and it shattered.
Will it be ok?
What do I do in the future to prevent this?

In the future, use a knife to get under the super glue on the plug, a little twist and it will pop right off.
No idea if it will make it, maybe try to glue the skeleton?
good luck.

Glue the skeleton togethor and put a small rubber band around it to keep it stable for few weeks.

If the polyp got ripped off the skeleton, it will most likely not make it. If it still holds the skeleton, it might heal.
