| Posted | Fragging a giant toadstool |
| 25-08-2006 20:02 by laura |
Hey guys,
I have just aquired a huge toadstool and I really want to frag it. Have any of you tried this or got any methods you think will work? I have read about slicing it into pie shaped slices and leaving it to heal before cutting them. Also read about cutting the top off, all of these seem drastic. Has anyone tried a way that can work?? |

i used to cut little pieces off every now and again and it will heal and the new piece will grow, i found if you if you cut to much it kills it

Fragging this coral is easy and a frag will reattach and form a new coral fairly quickly. This coral can be fragged many ways. Cutting off the crown will give you two corals. Taking the cap/crown and slicing it can gain you many corals. There is very little risk involved and almost any cut will create new colonies. The frags can then be attached using glue or rubberbands. I've had successful attachments just by placing part of it in a small hole in the liverock.
