How do you mount a frag of a aussie lord acan. Ive never had one I want to order one but it comes unmounted. I know how to mount acropora just never dealt with an acan.
 
You can superglue it to a piece of rock rubble or a frag plug. Once it has settled in you can use putty to build up the area around the frag to allow it to encrust more easily.
 
2-part epoxy putty. You can buy it from certain fish stores made for our purpose or just get Aquamend from Home Depot (possibly other hardware stores as well). It comes as a stick. You just cut off a piece, mix it together, press it into place, and it hardens like stone.
 
Yep =)

It's a good idea to let the coral settle in a little before you attempt the build-up. Also be extra careful not to come too close to the tissue because the putty can irritate the flesh if placed too close =)
