Same here, my propagation was a success too.

I try on the neon green florida. Cut into quadrant 1/4.

Form a complete round shape already and now foming the outer edge polyps/bubbles.

Manage to see a faint evolvement of the mouth.

Already attached to the small live rock I provided.

Too bad , my cam can't do close Macro shots to show pics here.

The above process took place 2 1/2 weeks ago.

So far so good.

think it is time to take out the surgical kit......ricordeas...here i come.....keke....

guys, my ricordeas have 3 mouths on one frag....how should I chop it up?

[williammuk]

DeepBlue, why not let it split naturally into three first before you operate on it.

100% sucess would be cutting it up into 3 parts or pieces since it has 3 mouth..

Dont cut the mouth

[boxfish]

I have 3 pieces with 3 mouths...wah... gona have 6 pieces

[Mellow]

wow..u're gonna be one rich fellow man!!! haha...yah, why dun u let those with 3 mouths split naturally? it wun take long before they split into 3...at least wun have to risk operating on them...they're afterall $50 a piece

[DeepBlue]

wanted to do it...but going to wait for a while....dun like to cut $50 dollars up for no reason..... like to find out more first....bo licence to operate.......

woon ming, can show a pic of your receovering ricordea...?

eh cutting up $50 dollars note is illegal you know

[berrykin]

U mean can cut the richo into pieces and they will not die.. just dun cut the mouth ah..

Wat is my richo got one mouth?? can still cut???

Amzing... sure wun die or not.. later die lioa.. $50 gone

[DeepBlue]

actually..not about the money...ricordea florida dun turn up regularly....so far only ONE LFS brought them in......... hate to let something so rare and few go to waste...maybe can engage woon ming to do the ops...keke................

btw ...if there's on mouth.......I dun think it is ready to be split up at all......(my guesses lah)

[junyong84]

superglue wun contamine the water???

[DeepBlue]

do it on the dried surface....stick it together....then allow a few sec to dry....lower into a small cup of your tank water...might see some chemical(alcohol probably) floating off....then put back into your tank..negligible lah...my ricordeas are now really nice already...... ....will show you later....but no adverse effects leh.....
