Do any of the r2r memberships have an extra tank that they use for coral only such as frags/grow out pieces? Or do you just put frags and smaller pieces straight into your reef? Would love to hear what you all do!

You can do either. I think the majority of reefers have only one tank, but many have multiple tanks, including dedicated coral frag or grow-out tanks. I have a separate tank to QT corals for the rare times they may have a fish parasite on them. It's up to you how many tanks you want, and how you want to stock them!

Good luck!

DIY frag rack attached to the front pane of the tank. Easy to keep under observation incase something pops up after dipping.
