New to reef keeping Evo 13.5

[ahoyCoral]

I’m a new member looking out for tips and tricks to make the reefing hobby even more interesting and fun than it already is! Loving the experience so far and excited to enchance my reef by adding more corals and tank mates to add to colour and biodiversity.

I have two clowns, two blue legged hermit, an emerald crab and a snail. For corals so far I’ve a Duncan, a war coral and a toadstool who all seem to be doing good, feed them polyp lab reef roids twice a week!(excluding the toadstool leather).

Thanks very much, it’s all new to me and I’m just trying to research and learn as much as I can to make my reefing experience as successful as it can be. And yea my aquascape is a bit better now than it was at first, quite happy with it now just find it hard to add frag plugs to the scape. How do you mount your corals on frag plugs to your scape?

I try to remove Coral from plug if possible. If not I'll trim the plug and cut the bottom off. This also helps remove potential pests.

I’ll maybe try cut the peg of the frag plug off and attach. But what glue do you use to attach to scape? Thanks

 

[flchamp89]

Superglue gel. I like gorilla glue
