i need help with frags

[200g+guy]

i have recently cut frags as you can tell from the other post and i was looking at them eariler today (colt coral frags) and there really limp and not standing up straight andi was wondering if theyll stay like that untill they become "mature" or is it because somethings wrong?

theyre probably just ticked off at u. id give it a few days and see how they look

How long has it been since they were fragged? Mine attached to a piece of rock within about 3-5 days and have continued to grow since then. They are probably OK, pretty hardy little suckers. Also, when retracted, do they feel slimy or dry to the touch? I thought mine was a Colt but after doing some more reading I learned that if it is dry to the touch when retracted it is actually a Kenya Tree.

First day after being fragged and tied to a rock with fishing line (retracted, not so happy)




Now, about 1 month later (growing new branches and looking happier)

If it's only a day old, I'm not surprised it's limp looking. Give it at least a week until you start worrying. It just had it's arm cut off!

Do you have a pic by any chance? All the pics you usually find on the web are grown out and look much different than the frags. I'd love to see the difference between a Colt and a Kenya at this early stage so I'll be able to ID them better in the future.
