Placing Frags in Tanks - Recommendations

Fish&Corgis · 01/04/2009, 11:25 AM

Just picked up some frags for my tank.

Several are on little discs about the size of a 50 cent piece. I am planning to leave these be and in time the ricordia and coraline will just overtake them.

There are several that have posts underneath the discs. What is the best approach on these?

You can pick a spot on your existing reef rock and attached those starter discs to them using Super Glue GEL.

How about the onese with the posts, can I clip them off, saw them off?

Do you have any holes in your lr? You could just stick them in.. I don't see why you couldn' clip the stem off either.

You can - just be sure that you don't crack the main platform that the animal is attached to.

like rkelman said. You can just look for holes in the LR and stick the post into the holes.
