Here’s some nice photos showing my King Kongs. Top two are with an orange filter (Pencil case) and the bottom two are without any filter.

It will attach to whatever it touches, typically. Putting ricordea on a pile rock rubble is a great way to get frags.

Wait for experts but I just let mine do whatever they want -- they seem to wander however they like.

Quick note --- I mangled the green one in post #626 in an ill-fated attempt to remove the frag disc that I THOUGHT it had completely wandered away from.
Long story short (((too late?))) --- all three sections were still connected and one edge of one was barely touching the edge of the frag disc. The whole patch pulled up with the frag disc.

Post #626 shows that it recovered fine and dismembered chunk is even growing on its own --- hard to see in upper-right of the top-down picture because it's kind of underneath the rest of the patch.
