This is just a question Jon. When you snipped it did anything remain on the original rock? I am just thinking of when you do that to Xenia, it just regrows from the remaining bit.
Bob, if you check Jonny's quote, I think he's saying that there is some growth from the spot, but not enough to concern him.

Maybe it's much like mushrooms or xenia, and you have to scour the same spot until they stop coming back. Of course on a rock with a half-dozen SPS on it, he's not free to be working on it a lot, and would likely be removing a new leather frag every few months. It'd be interesting to see if the spot eventually gets grown over by the hard corals.
Your thought's are correct Alan, There was a little bit left but because I do waterchanges, use a skimmer, run carbon (not geared toward you bob in anyway) I find softies grow slow in my tank. So the little nub remaining will grow into something in maybe a few years.
