You can just cut it with a razor knife and rubberband or use netting to help the frag attach to a new rock. Or just put some pieces of rubble near it and it will spread on it's own

I honestly dont know what kind of plants those are. They just started to grow. All i know is that i love my Light its amazing makes everything grow haha.

50 dollars for a xenia frag thats rediculous. I got all my frags including the xenia one for 10 a frag. I go to school in the U.P. and i brought the frags up from Ann Arbor down state. I sold a little xenia frag to the store up here for 10 bucks and went back in to get a fish and they had it marked at 45...I was like thats rediculous.

What are some others LFS prices for soft coral frags. out of curiosity

Instead of rubberbands,I put a toothpick threw the trunk near the bottom you cut off and crazy glue the ends to a rockasnd then waite a week and break off the toothpick.Also when I glue ,I use a quick dry spray(from a modle shop) to dry it instantly!

what are the tank specs? What kind of tank, lighting, flow, skimming etc?

I really like the look of the single large coral and your rock/sand layout is excellent for viewing what's going on in the tank. Very nice, thanks for sharing

Its a 10 gallon tank with a 96watt coral life light and a skilter 250 filter/skimmer. I dont have any added flow to that tank. The skilter SUCKS it doesnt skim at all when i get back home from school ill get some money and get a differant filter setup. I kno i really shouldnt have 2 fish but im always tryin to push the limits so I just got a fire fish. So yea thats my set up thanks for all the tips and complements.
