Question marks because not sure if it's called a frag. There is a small coral that some helpful folks on here have helped me identify as a likely hammer coral. It was lying on the bottom of a tank (my first marine tank ever yay!!) that I rescued off of craigslist. The reason I am posting though is because of a technique I used that was extremely helpful for me. I had a rock that was completely dry and I put the superglue that I used on the rock where I intended too place the coral. Now for the helpful part and this is where your proficiency in the use of chopsticks can really help !!! I simply grabbed the extremely tiny frag on it's calcium base put a tiny drop of super-glue on the frag and firmly placed it onto the rock with the tiny bit of tacky super-glue I had on the rock already, held it in place for a couple of seconds. No muss no fuss my frag was probably only out of the water for a minute and it seems too be doing well. Here is a pic of my little coral. Its above the lawnmower blenny in line with his/her back almost impossibly small.
Sorry about the picture quality I'm still trying too figure out how too use a decent camera. I hope at least someone can use this little trick. It was helpful for me, otherwise I always end up gluing my fingers together [emoji35]
