Calling established Red Dragon owners - to frag or not?

I bought this red dragon frag about 2 weeks ago. I lost some of it right off the bat but it looks pretty stable at this point. It is on the bottom of my 120g (24 inches deep) under 250MH 14K Phoenix X2 and ATI Blue Plus 54W T5x2. Currently gets mild to moderate flow on the bottom (3 MP40s in tank).

Questions:

1. Wondering if I should just leave it for now or frag it and re-mount it before definitively placing it.

2. Was going to place about half way up in moderate to strong flow.

What do you think? Any suggestions/thoughts/tips, etc/

I dipped it when I first got it two weeks ago. Do you think it needs another coral Rx dip? I have looked it over several times with a magnifier and it looks clean. I am concerned that more manipulation will tip it over the edge. Thanks for the help.
 
Frag it and place in good indirect flow. I would not dip it because it is stressed. Keep Sponge Power (SP) on hand when STN occurs, SP will render aid.
 
I have not heard of Sponge Power but looked it up - A Korallen-Zucht ZEOvit product. Do you use it all the time or just when you are having problems?
 
Maybe I'm imagining things but I recall that Red Dragons are sensitive to Coral Rx. Am I making this up perhaps?
