Mobile Frag Mounts. Any Suggestions?

[gmvergas]

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to mount frags in way that they can be easily moved? I have any idea but I am questioning its feasibility. This idea requires drilling a hole in the coral and the live rock about the same size as rigid tubing. They rigid tube would be slide into the holes to allow mounting. This would allow pulling coral off the rock if desired. So the question is, will coral skeletons allow drilling? Thanks

I think it would be better to mount the frag to a plug and drill a hole in only the rock. Insert the plug to the rock and then you have your moveable coral. I wouldn't drill into the coral skeleton.

Excellent! Drilling the frag plug or epoxying the pipe is much less invasive than drilling into the coral skeleton. Coral is not bone! Many thanks.
