frags

how do you know what you can and cant frag?

[mg]

I am not aware of any corals that can't be fragged if you know how. Anything in particular?

[Sara7814]

oh i was just curious at a few things i had.. i just didnt know how you would do it or if everything could be fragged...
heres a few things
bubble coral
finger leather
2 toadstool leathers

[Sara7814]

i dont want to frag them... i was just curious if they get to big if i could

[mg]

The finger and toadstool leathers you can just chop up with a razor blade. You can then attach them to a rock by sticking a toothpick through it and loosly attaching the toothpick sticking out both sides with rubber bands to a rock. There are other ways of attaching them as well but I won't get into all of them. Things like bubble and hammer corals that are not the branching variety, I am actually not sure how to do. If the are the branching type, then you just break the skeleton where it branches and there is no living tissue.

oh i see... how long would it take the toadstools to grow whole again.... if and when i fragged them..

when you say skeleton.. you talking bout the rock its on? if not could you explain?

I use sizzors to frag my leathers because I'm lazy, also because I'm lazy I just rubberband the frag to a rock, before the rubber band gets the chance to rot off the frag is very well attached.

The hammer and bubble can be fragged too, there just tougher.

Leathers are easy as well, just snip snip!

I may have some more as well. It is scary the first time, but after that you can go nuts!
