frag attachment

[DLANDINO]

I hate to beat a dead horse. I asked this question today twice in different ways and everyone was so nice in sending replies. I have gotten a small piece of LR and have loosely rubber banded a Kenya Tree Coral to the rock. Is is important that the cut side of the coral is touching the LR or will the coral adjust and attach from a new spot? Thanks.

If it were me, I'd try to keep the cut piece touching the rock, but any surface should attach. Make sure the rubber band isn't too loose and keeping them touching, it should be tight enough to be secure but not so tight that it's cutting into the coral.

thank you, this is my first coral and it is very important to me that it make it. I am actually up watching it to make sure it is ok. This new hobby is definitely an obsession.

If that doesn't work try using toothpicks to secure to the rock with rubberbands. Good luck!

That's awesome!

With that kind of dedication, you'll do very well in this hobby.

thanks very much all! What an exciting ride these past few months have been.

it will attach on any part that is touching it after a while.
