Jist wondering what you guys do.. do you keep the corals on the plugs ? Or do you break them off ?
I ask because normally 95% on the time i break my corals off the plugs even if i lose half the coral that encrusted on it. Mainly because even though i dip i dont like nasties coming in on my plugs.
It sucks losing all that growth specialy for sps acroporas or montis ect.
But yea.. just curious. Like this unknown to me acro i got today for 30$ i dipped it and saw really nothing come off it.. but the plug has alot of coraline encrusted on the sides.. i was just going to keep it and i tried to break the stick end off the bottom but i broke the acro off.
Now im debating.. keep the acro i broke off and toss the plug or keep both and have two acros growing. Its got enough encrusted on the plug to grow into a seperate peice.
But is ot worth it ? I heard flat worms lay eggs on the base of thr coral so thats why ive nornally always tossed plugs.
What do you guys think or do ?
