I would like to frag my Acan colony of 60+ heads. Super Lord H's I believe. The problem is, the rock they are on is about 4" thick. What can I use to cut them that will do the least amount of harm to the coral. Any special techniques would be much appreciated also. Thanks.

Thanks. guess i'll have to buy a new tank for QT then.

bump?

I currently have 2 Ocellaris Clowns in my 110g DT. I have a Black and White Clown in my frag tank that I would like to move to the dt so I can use it as a quarantine. Do you guys think the black and white will cause a problem?

I run a single mp40 on my 110g tall and I am very happy with it. Once you find the right location for it, It will give more than enough flow for the whole tank.

Definitely
