I've never fragged any coral before. My red zoas seem to be growing really well. Should I frag these? In the second pic (that's my firefish Tweedle Dum he likes the camera) that's a frag I just added that I would like to frag when it grows and third picture is of mushrooms - I have a purple mushroom that fell off and is floating in the tank. What should I do with it?

I would frag em, why not? As for the loose floating mushrooms. In my experience mushrooms are to slimy to glue to a rock or plug. Your best bet is to put the shroom in a netted container or some type of container with some rock rubble in it and place in the tank. The shroom will eventually attach to something.

You could trade me a purple mushroom for a red one, works for both!

You could glue the mushroom if you really wanted to. I just put mine in an area with low flow for a little bit and they usually attach to a rock.

Have you fragged yet?

I'm probably going to give 2Sweet my mushroom its kinda sticking to some coral pieces on the bottom. It's in a low flow area. It's a small mushroom ;) I haven't fragged yet either.

So great to meet you Nadia, thank you for the mushroom and if you want a larger frag of the pipe organ let me know. It was my first
time cutting it up and gluing and I was kinda scared I'd kill the pieces I cut off. Grows really fast for me under Compact Flor. so it should
do well under your T5s. Nice to meet a gal that enjoys this hobby too!

I enjoyed meeting you too!! Everything has opened and is starting to settle in. The pipe organ looks fantastic I can't wait to see what it does! I hope the purple mushroom makes more for you. I will let you know when I frag the zoas :-D
