Frag plugs

[Gobyluver]

Hi bros and sis..

Have anyone use those clays that u can form and mold into shapes before drying it out permanently to make frag plugs.

Saw a packet at MPH store yesterday at abt 1 green note.

Will it leak some undesirable chemicals if soak in saltwater? Care to share ur experience.

Thx in advance..

Hi bro Az, had been sometime never heard from you. My advise, is no. Clay are soft material and dissolve easily in water, so they putting kind of chemical that strong to bond them up. I had been using normal cement concrete 1 part to 3 part of coral sand grade 1. Been using them for a year for my fragging purpose as recomended and proved by most reefer around the world with no detrimental issue to any life stock in the tank. This is some of the know how in doing it right.

This video is little bit more of organise and neat way doing them.

Happy fragging.

No problem bros, am glad everyone here are coming to the interest in fragging and propagating corals. So we can do a little part in conservation.

Infact for your info am only doing frag disc in my propagation program as shown in the pic below. I use a cut 1 in acrylic rod of a diameter that just nice to fit in egg create. So this will need to be super glued to form the leg for the disc. Once propagation successful you just need to break it off and transfer your frag to your new location and then use back the acrylic leg. It is my improvised version to save some material and I just dont like protuding leg of frag plug that hindering frag setting.

Hope you got what I mean.
