| Re: Fastest growing I have a green star polyp (i think thats what it is) that will NOT stop growing. I have to basically rip off chunks at a time. So far most of the chunks have just been moved to different sides of the tank, but sooner or later it'll either be the garbage can or I start figuring out how to sell it. I also have peach brarium (that spelling can't be right) that I absolutely love and it spreads all over the place, but for some reason I'm okay with that. It's like pink grass blowing in the water.

| Re: Fastest growing I can certainly sell it for pretty darn cheap. I don't know how to officially frag it though...would you want it on a piece of shell/rock? Or free?

| Re: Fastest growing Dolce, it is easy. Get yourself a razor blade or scapel and cut through the mat. It cuts easily. If you have a rock frag, use some loctite superglue and/or rubberband to attach it and then toss it back into the tank for a awhile to make sure you didn't hurt anything.

| Re: Fastest growing Alright, free with shipping and I'll attempt a couple frags. I moved a bunch of stuff around in the tank so I'm gonna let it sit for a day or two and then try it out.

| Re: Fastest growing Haha please...all I do is sit and stare at my tank when I come home from work. This'll give me something to do. I'll just need help with figuring out how to bag them. I'm nervous I'll mess it up somehow. Maybe I can snag a couple bags from my LFS to hold it in?

| Re: Fastest growing Is there a forum already up about how to properly ship corals? I work at a lab and have acess to tons of boxes I can use, but I'll also need styrofoam, right?

| Re: Fastest growing I looked a little online and it says you can get away with packing some corals with just a damp paper towel...that seems crazy right?

| Re: Fastest growing I am not 100% sure how to ship. But dont ship unless you know that you are doing it correctly. |
