[wanabesalt]

well this weekend i will be getting some xenias but i have to remove from back of tank it is glass what whould be the best way to remove them from glass and re attaching them to rocks or rubble. with out hurting them.

Use a new razor blade and just scrap it off the glass. Attach the new frag to a rock or piece of rubble with a rubber band. It should attach itself in 2-3 days. HTH

okay i will give it a try hope the xenia makes it and also were should the rubber band go

 

[fishfreek]

Xenia are very hearty IMO. It should make it with no problems. Wrap the rubber band around the base of the coral (where you removed it from the glass)

I agree with fishfreek. Also, I love your avatar, is that a yellow clown goby and some beautiful type of brain? I like it very much!

I agree also, that's the way I'vh don it.

ive heard to stick a toothpick through the base, and rubberband that down, then after a couple days take off the rubber band and toothpick
