This piece was given to me by sphelps when I helped him out with something. I don't think I'd feel right selling frags of it: though I think I'd feel okay trading them for other frags.

Or, I could just populate my contest tank with twenty little birdsnest corals.

You were going to send me photos so I could choose the one I wanted. You never sent photos (and then I forgot to remind you).

I'll bring cash for that.

I'll see how the frags do before I commit to any trades.

Lucky. Mine has maybe doubled in size in 7 months. Not sure why. Do you have high flow? I have good params and light so I'm assuming that's the problem.

"Notme" and "Idonno" have struck again. Pretty sure it was "Idonno" as "Notme" probably would have glued his nostrils shut with it.

My frag glue is AWOL. I'm pretty sure it is supposed to go glue/epoxy/glue . . . Right? Grrr. I do have head cement (for fishing flies). Could I use that? It isn't very thick, with the exception of the UV stuff that glows bright yellow.

Moderate flow, moderate light, and very high nutrients. I have a monti cap that grows very well in the system, too. My pink birdsnest is doing all right, while I have two other SPS that aren't doing very well.

Lovely I'll just bring some cash and browse your frag tank. I have stuff to pick up from Greg, too.

just use the gel by its self , if your using plugs drop a healthy amount on and stand the frag in it , if you pour a few drops of water over it it will cure faster

use eggcrate to hold your plug while it dries out of water, sprinkle water on it every few mins to keep it from drying out

i only use glue for eveything i find epoxy does nothing that glue by its self wont do
