kenya tree coral

[rbrockm1]

my kenya tree coral has split into 5 other ones now i have one big one and 4 lil ones. i ll try get pics tomorrow. i am not sure what i want to do with them. i want to attach to lil rocks and use them as trade in value. how do you get them to stay on the lil rocks

im going through the same thing just stick them in a crevice in a rock they will attach them self

I have found that using pins with a rubber band cut to hold them in place.
Take a rubber band and cut a square piece out of it, then push that onto the pin. Now pin the kenya tree to the rock and push the rubber band down onto the tree so that it is pressed against the rock. Wait 2 days and remove pin.

both those methods work, I usually just set a pice of rock on the base it attaches fast day maybe two.

I tried this method as well, however they would crawl out from under the rock back onto the sand? I don't know how but I tried this on one frag for 3 days and every day I woke up and he was back in on the sand, so I would set the rock on him and he would be out from under it the next day as well. Maybe I should of used a bigger rock?

hmmm. I always use a 1 or 2 inch chunk of LR. I haven't had it crawl out from under it, but hey I've always said what works for one person wont necessarily work for another. I've tried pinning them down they just broke free (probably too much current) But I know several people that use the pinning method effectively. its always good to try a couple different things to see what works best and is easiest for you. if there is a piece of sand attached to one you can always super glue gel the sand like the mushroom method.
