Frag Questions

[slofish]

I need help learning to frag my corals. I have some mushrooms, fox coral, torch, flower pot, and am planning on adding zoos and xenias eventually. The corals are starting to run well into each other and need to find ways to break them off without losing the coral so i can add in new corals. Also, some are just overgrowing their rocks. Please help? Thx in advance

Xenia just take some sharp sissors and snip. I did today. My variety bases in a day so go very loose on the rubberband or they will split and come loose. Zoos can usually be detatched from their mother colony and placed elsewhere. Find a horseshoe and place a line of superglue gel in the middle of the horseshoe to hold it to the rock. IF that makes sense. Make sure you wear gloves for those. For your torch. You can wait till there is a distinctive 2 way branch of skeleton and split it in half. Be carful not to place any pressure on the head of each branch. That part of the skeleton is quite fragile and of course houses the "skin" I think the fox can be fragged in the same way but im not sure. I think they are alot more fragile. Shrooms like melody said. Flowerpot don't mess with it. Any sps is really just a matter of breaking a branch and glueing it on the newly exposed white part i.e. the skeleton...
