How do you transfer a coral from a plastic plug to a rock? I recently recieved a coral on a plastic plug and Im not sure how to get it on to a rock. Any sugesstions?

Trim the plastic plug down as much as possible. Wire cutters or maybe even a dremel will work.
Then use superglue to stick the base to the new rock.

I've just stuck the plastic plug as is into my rock and glued it there. In a while the coral will just overgrow the plug.

how big is the plug? I usually take a small piece of lr and drill a hole large enough to slide the plug in and have the base of the coral meet the lr, this way the corals base fuses with the live rock easier.
