Frag it all

I'm starting a propagation project with my display and a nano tanks. I have hopes of spreading my corals to far away places.I have been fragging for my business for years but have left it alone on my home tank so far.Those days are over, its started and who knows where it'll end up. So far I've fragged my Galaxea (4), mother colony still in display.Yellow Polyps,and some Fire and Ice Zoos.I'm using "frag pods" to mount corals rather than rock, these little plugs are really cool!!! I'll post pics this weekend and update on progress.

I've seen the small concreate 'disks' used before. Those work awesome too!

The pods are easy to move around to find where the coral would be most happy and gives them a nice even surface to encrust onto.Rock rubble is great but I have limited space so being uniform in pattern will suit me a lot better.The concrete plugs work also but I'm no mason, leave it at that...
