fragging

Gryphon C-40 Coral saw. I've had it for a while, but only use it a few times a year. Blade only has about 10 cuts on it, so basically new. Asking $360 plus actual shipping. Please PM if interested. Thanks!

So about a year ago I was gifted a Warpaint Scoly from a local reefer who was moving some coral on. It did ok in my main display, but never thrived due to the high light for my mostly SPS system. I moved it into my frag tank to recover where it thrived and close to doubled in size, so decided...

I have a couple colonies I’d like to frag and heal before my next swap. Watching online turorials, I’ve seen 4 techniques which have all claimed they are the correct way: 1. Bandsaw cutting between head along the border skeleton 2. Dremel to remove thickness, then sharp shears to snip out...

So fragged this favia off my old aquascape ~ 3 months ago. Now that it’s all healed there’s this part not attached to the base that is slowly falling down. What do I do with this? Should I let it roam free or try to glue it to a plug? (This piece is all fleshy there is no hard part). I thought...

does anyone have an ID on any of these? Asked a few weeks ago and the only answer I got was that maybe the one with the red mouth is a gorilla nipple, not sure tho

Hi All! Wondering if I could get some opinions on what might be going on here. My toadstool that is many years old and usually very happy has form a hole and started splitting from an edge for the last week or so. It might be self fragging but I’ve never seen that in person so hoping to get...

Hello everyone, so my 50 gallon frag tank has been cycling for quite a while now and I am ready to add some test coral with this, I want to set up a anemone/mushroom basket, but I have seen other people use my question with this is what would be the best substrate to use in this? Should I go for...

I have one Gryphon band saw, brand new in a sealed box. Asking $350 plus shipping anywhere in US. Bought 2 at a low price to keep one and sell the other.

I recently got a red chili finger and it is doing great. Not planning to frag it just yet but when it gets a bit bigger I think I’ll have to, it’s already starting to rub against the rock a bit. What’s the best way to frag these? Also should I frag while it’s expanded at night/morning or closed...

How is everyone attaching higher end mushrooms to ceramic tiles? Have some Sunkist bounce mushrooms I’d like to transfer to tiles. Also are people still using rubber bands to hold mushrooms to frag plugs, or?

Picked up these 4" square THIN frag plates at Aquashella in Dallas a couple weeks ago and would looked to find more like them. Unfortunately I can't remember the vendor we got them from. Anyone have a lead on them or something similar?

Hello! Hammer has been making buds off the base for a bit and one is quite large now. Leave it or is this a good first time frag opportunity? any how to tips appreciated. Thanks!

Hey everyone!! Just wanted to share a quick thread after chopping two of my OG Bounce Mushrooms up. Both frags were about the size of a quarter. I did my best to get a piece of foot on each frag and I think have a mouth on 6/7 frags :D. I used a brand new razor and tile cutters. Here are some...

So I asked this when I first started before I knew what Aiptasia was. I have since observed Aiptasia in every single LFS retail location I have visited. They all have it in their systems. It's not a lot. It's not covering everything. But it's present. I understand and agree with the idea that...

Hello guys, weird title perhaps, but let me explain. I have this Zoa frag that I purchased as it was pretty stretched for like 30$. I have it for about a month now, but the stretching isn’t getting better. The reason is that there are 3 (or 4 not sure) types of Zoas there, and they keep trying...

I am planning out a major trim of one of my Montipora and just seeing if there are tips, tricks, or hints on best practices. I have fragged a coral before but to take away well over half is another thing. I uploaded these same photos to my build thread asking for help but...it is a build thread...

So I am trying to grow a gsp wall in my tank on both sides of the back wall, I have a Red Sea reefer 170. The gsp has grown onto the back wall pretty well so far, but I am not sure if I should trim it or wait a little longer till it grows out some more. I have never cut gsp and I do not want to...

Acclamating my sps frags has been a hassle with the random plugs the sellers send me. some have long stocks (not sure what to call them) and can withstand strong flow, some will be blown off, some have none at all, not to mention those that fall off during transit. starting them on the sand and...

Two of my leathers are growing like crazy looking for advice about fragging/pruning names of the leathers and fair prices for frags would also be appreciated. May sell the round one a single piece, seems a shame to cut but it is overtaking the tank (100 g) thanks.

Cutting some shrooms up and want to know peoples process.

Large Pink Stylophora coral has slowly developed issue which I assume is a common one. The top branches are growing and stealing light from bottom branches, bottom line issue is the base (or trunk) of it now has almost no light. I have never fragged a acro or stylo coral before perhaps this is...

So I’m preparing to frag some plays that are growing pretty quickly. My question is: can I cut the long stalks off or do I still have to cut them towards the bottom? I personally don’t like the long stalks, but if they stay on they stay on. ng

Is this aiptasia? I've never fragged a coral before. Am I right in thinking I can cut the base of this leather toadstool to remove the plug area where the aiptasia is n discard. And then super glue the toadstool to a rock fragment. I want to check before I accidentally kill the toadstool. Thanks...
