Are you going to the Frag Farmer's Market? Jon always has them for sale.

I do have the squares and will have some at the FFM (25 for $5) or I am pretty sure that Jon from Boston Aqua Farms will be there as well with their plugs and discs.

Have you ever thought of using rubble rock for frag plugs? They sit in the sand or on egg crate. Once the coral is placed in a show tank, the base (rubble rock) blends in with the other rock in the tank. Unlike a "person" made symetrical frag plug. I have even cut the rock in half to make a flat surface. I came up with the idea after having buckets of them and didn't want to throw them away. I'll try to bring some to the FFM to show you what I mean.
