Fragging and Glueing zoos

[binaryterror]

Hi, I am getting my first zoos tomorrow and I am splitting them with a friend. Now, we are going to split who gets zoos on a rock and who gets the fragged zoos. So I am wondering for fragging, so I just take an exacto blade and slice them off? And about glueing, do I just use supgerglue gel and glue them right to a rock? Thanks! I will post pics hopefully!

A lot of zoos don't like to be glued. It works better (and cleaner) if you can chisel the rock. The rock is really soft and easy to chisel/carve. This way the zoos will remain attached to something, and you can glue their little rock to a bigger one.

there's a good article about fragging on zoaid.com

You'll have better luck with rubber bands than with super glue I think.

i tried rubberbanding a shroom and it split it in half since it was so tight, even thought it was the biggest i have, rubber bands are harder imo

Check out zoaid, too, but what I do is chisel (hammer and chisel) or cut a piece of the rock off with bone shears and superglue gel it to a spacer. I rarely ever have any detachment issues with this method. Doing a straight zoa to rock glue job, you might run into issues with detachment, but I have done this many times with only an occasional detachment. I usually put the glue gel in a pile on the rock and let it sit for a minute or so, then press the zoa mat (or rock) into the gel, then place it in some tank water for a minute or so to set. Not much to it, really.
