| Do I look as lost as I am ![]() | FrogSpawn fragged on a shell? just bought a FrogSpawn frag off of a local reefer... I was in a HUGE hurry (lunch break) and forgot to ask him more about it.. it's a small frag stuck onto a seashell (same kind as Shell-Oil's logo) which I think is a scallop.... My question is.... do I glue the shell to the rock where I want the frag or what? I don't want to use the whole shell because I it would look silly with a scallop stuck on the rock... any options? ideas? Allen

| Acropora ![]() | Re: FrogSpawn fragged on a shell? I'd leave it until you find a good place in the tank for it, I had to move mine several times until it liked it's spot.

| Plate Coral | Re: FrogSpawn fragged on a shell? Depending on how it is glued to the frag and the condition of the frag, you may be able to just remove it from the shell. Alternately, you may be able to cut down the shell to a suitable size. Also, don't forget, the coral and coraline algae will eventually cover the shell making it look like just another piece of the LR.

| Tunicate | Re: FrogSpawn fragged on a shell? Hey AL, I answered at reefmonkey, but I thought I'd get you here as well. I glued the frogspawn to the shell so it would remain upright in my frag tank. It's just superglue and can be broken off very easily, just go ahead and remove the shell if you don't want it, it wont hurt anything. How is the frogspawn looking in your tank? |

Once I get the rest of my "zoa-pak" in and I know where things are going to be long term I'll remove the shell. For now it's sitting proud on it's shell at the top level of my rock! THANK YOU!! Allen
