Trying to utilize a 30 cube I thought a more natural look would be interesting for a zoa grow out set-up.

Hoping to get as much room out of it as possible I cut rocks flat and turned them so they formed shelves. This way I could place discs on them without the worry of them falling off as compared to trying to set them on bumpy, uneven surfaces of LR.

Magnetic mounted racks I am still using for plugs. I am finding it so much simpler and less stressful on the zoanthid when fragging from overgrown pugs that I covered ina thin laer of superglue gel and dipped in fine sand for the zoas to attatch and grow onto. By simply removing the layer of sand from the plug/mount/disc with a scalpel the undamaged zoanthids are easily fragged and remounted.

That is a very good idea!!!!
