#2 is designed to lock into sloped frag racks and is balanced so it won't spin

Question: How will most of these frag plugs work when it comes to taking them off a frag rack and sticking them into a display tank? Do you cut the frag off the plug when you buy them? Do you snap off the "legs"? Or do you drill large holes into your live rock to stick the four legs in? I'm NOT trying to be sarcastic but I'm looking at them and trying to figure out how I would mount the four legged plugs into my display tank.

Sorry, I don't like any of them. I like disks. My next pick would be #4, but only if it fits into eggcrate and standard racks - it looks kinda big.

I'm with you. I only use plugs to temporarily hold in a rack, and then it gets mounted to rock. I suppose if you don't mount frags and prefer the colonies to be movable, then the others have merit.
