Default First frag---

so a couple days ago i decided to try to do my first fragging off my large zoo rock. and i gotta tell ya i was a little intimidated but decided to try it anyway. and i cut off about 7 polyps and glued them to another rock. and wow so shocked that it worked and the fragged polyps are open. im so excited, i cant wait to watch them grow

Thanks I know to people who have been doing the reef thing for a while it is probably such an easy thing. but i was excited that i did it and it worked. i didnt realize though when cutting them how much they emptied out their liquids and turn into little empty like balloons. really weird. but it worked so i was happy.

i do have 2 frag round white discs that have zoos on them. i have had them about 2 weeks and they look good but the zoos themselves are small. any ideas on how long i should wait til i slice them off and move them to a real rock??? should i wait til they are bigger/taller???

Why slice them off. Just glue the frag plug where you want it. Eventually they will overgrow the plug hiding it. Good job on your first fragging effort by the way!
