    ISO 4" frag disc

    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?

    My first baby polyp!? I hope!

    Totally new to the SW side of things and I know next to nothing about how corals propagate, how they are fragged, etc. My giant paly has a new growth off of its base! Is this a new polyp? It will be my first new baby if so and I'll be very excited! What do you think?
