can i frag this???

[sweetdawn]

this has tripled in size in the last month. it is growing out of the crack in the rock i put it in. you can see at the base where it looks like it is glued to the rock. can i cut this and attach it to a different rock? or should i set a small rock next to it and let it grow onto it?

you can cut it. is it matting? if so just lift up some of the mat and snip it off

is matting where it looks like it is glued on the rock? i am worried about it spreading down far enough to bother the anename. the anename is happy where it is its foot is about three inches into the rock in a hole and it hasnt moved for couple months

the lfs where i got it said if i cut a piece off it would die. so i wandered what i could do about its growth

If the coral gets too close most likely the anemone will take care of it by stinging it.

which could harm the entire colony...if i were u, i'd cut it back and then glue it where u want

hey know its an older thread but i have a question about glueing stuff in tank. if you use super glue that i have seen people mention doesnt everything have to be dry and wont the stuff die if i leave it out of the tank that long is there an apoxy that you use. that will dry even though it is wet. I want to glue a small peice of liverock in place so it stops falling down.

For live rock I would use the epoxy. You can get it online or maybe at your lfs.
