For the SPS frags I got from @Golden Basket Reef I'm going to be trying a few different mounting styles out to see what works best.

For one frag, I've got a mound of epoxy encasing the frag plug, and smushed down onto the rock. When the frag starts to encrust, it'll have to travel down the epoxy onto the rock, giving it a super solid base. Maybe it'll grow upwards faster once that base is intact?




The next frag, the Tequila Lime Millepora, is glued straight to the rocks. Which, should still get a solid base once encrusted, but just for kicks.
 
Looking good!
 
Nice!
