My pink colt coral is getting quite large and im considering fragging it up. My only problem is im not sure how to do it. Any suggestions?
 
For softies like that I just snip off the portion I want to frag and either a loose rubber band to LR rubble or I'll put it in a container with a mesh top and get it to attach to rubble that way. It's pretty easy to propagate though.
 
The second method that gar732 has a higher sucess rate. The ruber band methon works but sometimes the coral will just die under the ruber band and then the rest will jump off of your rubble.
 
Thats a pretty unique way to go about it though! Who knew plastic swords could be used in this hobby?

No wonder I have such a poor(40percent) success rate when I frag my Nepthia... Thanks for the tip.
