Tyree Blue Diamond Staghorn

[Reefer93105]

Does anyone have any experience fragging a Tyree blue diamond staghorn? I have cut chunky 1" frags twice and it would only RTN on me after 2 days. It's the only acro that would do this in my system. Frags are placed at the top with eggcrate shading. The mother colony is healthy and sits at the top. Lighting is Radion Pro Gen3. Any advice appreciated. Thanks.

What kind of glue are you using?

I use BSA gel glue. Used it on many different types of acros with no ill effects.

Do you immediately submerge it in the tank after setting it in glue?

I would put a dab of glue on the plug and use the freshly cut frag to thicken the glue and set it. I do this over the tank and quickly put it back. The frag is out of the water no more than a minute or two.
