First Coral In The 100, hehe

Thanks Curt!! I hope we can all get some sleep soon, lol. I just started talking and now cant stop. I never have anyone down here to talk reef to, so I jumped on this. I have read the zoos are realy toxic, so I will have glasses, and gloves on, lol. I like the screw driver idea too. Ill have to give this a try some time. I agree with the LR/LS thought also, if it disolved into the water fast there would be like no solid calcium left!!! lol.

 

will this "squrit" hurt fish in the tank if you frag say a shroom in the water??

 

Lol!!!

 

I take that as a bad thing, lol.

 

Not really but it might upset the other corals pretty bad depending on what you keep. If your shrooms are on a large rock that cannot be removed easily, just make sure you have granular actived carbon in your system to remove the nasties.

Whenever possible, fragging should be done on a table or in a small rubbermaid container of tank water. Frag a leather coral inside your tank and see what the rest of your corals do for the next 24 hours....they'll all close up and a lot of other softies will send out their chemical warfare chemicals....it gets real bad.

With shrooms, I like to bridal veil it to a piece of LR rubble for a week or two. That way I can move them around easily. Bridal veil is dirt cheap at any craft store.

 

I was lol'ing this....

And yes, sleep apnea is a bad thing. Sufferers are 60% more likely to have a stroke/heart attack. Basically, your body notices the dissolved Oxygen in your blood has dropped a lot. It doesn't realize you're not breathing....it thinks you are majorly bleeding somewhere so your circulatory system starts working overtime. We basically wear out our hearts early.

 

I usually do it in a small tupaware i have just for fishtank use and siting down so im nice and calm.

 

wow, im sorry to hear.

 

Oh man, its worse than it sounds!! I meant it with no harm!!!
The way i meant it is the knowledge you are sharing with us is highly apreciated even if its during the wee hours in the morning!

 

yea, there is a video on reef central about fraging shrooms, and the guy did it in the tank. I was thinking of doing mine really soon, but now I think Ill try to get the rock out, and change the carbon. How soon can you add the frags back to the main tank?? Or what I should say is, how long before the frags attach to the rock rubble??
