does anyone know how Colts reproduce or multiply?
Do they split or almost spread like a polyp?
I have a colt that is doing awesome and i want 1 or maybe 2 more in my tank but scared to frag it just yet.(its only about 3 maybe 3 1/2 inches tall).
I THINK ( I don't have one) they just grow bigger and bigger.

I have one...and yes...unlike Kenya tree...colts just grow...to frag you have to cut a piece off and attach it to a rock or something....
When u frag (from what ive heard) you cut off a good sized branch right? and put it in a nice hole or nook in ur rock?
And do u do this in ur tank under the water or would you take the coral out and cut it?

Doesn't matter if you take it out of the water for a minute...I had to tie mine down though......colts are VERY slimey....You can cut a piece and attach it to a rock with a rubber band, or one time I took some of that netting (bridal lace stuff) and loosely put it around it and tied it on.....left it on for like 2 weeks to be sure too....

How big was the branch when u cut it? My Colt is about 3 1/2 inches tall and has prob 6 branches with little branches coming off of those. Should i wait a little longer to frag it?
