colt coral

[mmortus]

Whats the best way to attach a cutting of colt coral. I've tryed a couple of different methods, so far no luck.

I take two rocks (small/med) and set the coral between the two and wrap a rubber band(s) around the rocks compressing the coral between the rocks.

I find super glue gel works well for these types of coral cuttings. Snail shells work well for anchors. Squirt some glue into the hole of a dry shell and stick the base of the cutting into the hole. Wait The 10-20 seconds for the glue to set B4 placing the cutting back into your tank.

In my experence with colt the smaller the frag the better (within reason).I have used bridal vail ,ruber bands and super glue. I'v also stuck it in a hole in the rock. it seemes to do best under m.h. lighting and light current.I have one in my maine tank that's close to 20in. round it's to big I cut it it grows back faster than before I think cuting it is like pruning bushes you know cut it to alow for new growth.:bum: LIFE IS BUT A DREAM SLEEP AS LONG AS YOU CAN
