I just did my first fragging 2 days ago. Can't wait to see how they turn out. Don't have any zoanthids, just softies. Still a newbie to reefing but learning a lot from your channel. Been watching all your old videos.
You are the man March! Your shoot your videos like we are in the shop with you and are such a natural at it. I always enjoy the content and learn from the channel.
I have started placing spare frag plugs next to colonies that i really like or ones growing fast and letting them spread naturally making it very easy for me. when fragging i was always worried about cutting a zoa but when cutting the stem off the frag pug of overgrown green goblins zoas to glue in place i cut two zoas in half that where on the stem of the plug and i was amazed to see they grew back and fully open in about a week. i now have a second colony of them.
I would LOVE more videos like this showing how to frag out of a *display tank*. Most fragging videos are done out of frag tanks where everything is already on a plug or disc and just comes out. Most of us in the hobby are likely just working out of our display tanks that are getting overgrown. :)
You have to have "future sight" with reefs and plan on how you intend to break up the coral. Place plugs and rocks in such a way so as when the colony spreads it's easier to frag them naturally as you take apart the rockwork or remove and replace a plug.
Dad used do lots grafting of cactuses, mostly seedlings cactus, so when the cactuse seeds grow to 1-4weeks old he graft them then they grow fast and flower as soon as 6 months old, he excited try and graft some corals too for my tank 🥰
Can the polytoxin go airborne? I’ve read an article it went airborne and made a whole family in the house go to the hospital! Not sure how true it is though hoping you may have some insight on that. I love Zoas but don’t really want anything in the house that may kill us. 😂
I have a question for zoa, mine is way too long , any way I could make them stick back to the base ? I google and ppl said because they need more light , I actually turn the light intensity higher for 2 weeks but no sign for them to be short 😂
very very very very nice video..i learned some new tricks on fraggin them xD...I got a question though... when you cut the magician head, does the rest of the tissue left regrow head or maybe it just melts?
I'm too afraid of letting them grow on rocks because of how difficult it looks to get them off. I always keep them on disc's so I can pull it out and frag off of that. Doesn't look as nice in the tank but makes up for it when it's time to cut. Great vid March 👍
Wish I could get to a point where fragging was even possible! But this video actually answered a lot of questions I had about the process, thank you! And p.s. the new text alerts for your store are awesome 👌
Hi am new to the saltwater hobby. I’ve had my tank open running for about two months now. I have everything set up and cut my fish in the sand but have no cuddles yet because the shops down here where I am don’t really have good Coral in the UK Liverpool. Anybody know where I can get good Coral from
We do not, shipping to UK is about 60pounds. If you bundle with friends its only a about 10pounds per aquarium. I'll talk to my friend Paul at Advanced aquarium consultancy to see if he can get them. Alternatively call him up, tell him March from Fragbox said to get his new aquarium line in !
@@dazsboxofwater If enough people show interest in them we will make it happen, its really a fantastic shop and they whole team is great to deal with, please tell them I said hello
Cool video , I didn’t know you could just cut zoas like that , I think a zoa fragging sesh is going to happen in my tank , my zoa garden in on 🔥🔥 go cheak it out if you have time on my channel

if you look back on their videos of the Fragabox display tank March does fragging on overgrown corals

Never seen the scissor trick but I've been pretty rough fraghing zoas in the past and had good luck...thx....gonna try the scissors next session ....
Oh no way! I did not know you could clip a Zoa to frag it if needed. This is great information to know! Thanks!
I had no idea u can glue zoas without rocks. Sweet. Im going to try this for no other reason but curiosity
ya man ! try it out
Thanks March for the great information on fragging Zoas will definitely help
hey great video! what was the first tool you were using to "pinch" the zoa off? were those bone cutters?
That was a very cool video! I didn't know you could cut the single heads like that, learn something new every day! Thanks so much for that info 😃
there ya go !
Is there no issue sticking a rusty tool to frag them?
Awesome video like always 👍😎
I needed this knowledge I was stressing on what to do once my zoanthids get too big 😂
Hello I wanted to ask what kind of lighting do you have about the nano aquarium????? and how many watts is that???? Best regards . Martin
Reef casa halo led light
I love the blue eyed blonies but they are the slower growing one
so If u have 1 polyp on a frag how long will that take to turn into 2 polyps then 3 and so on
Thanks for the great video.

Cannot wait for more fragging videos. Great video. 🙏
I'm on it !
I love your vids March, I would want to meet you some day. Love from Cleveland, OH
come on by !
Hi March awesome and informative video! where do we go about preordering the flat!
I"ll try to get them on our site www.reefcasa.com for pre order asap :)
How much flow do they need
Zarden needs to get adopted by everyone in the hobby

what is the brown medicine u have on the cutter is it iodine or rust?
What are the valuable gold ones called? That snail not only got in the way of your video but of their name 😂
i live in fond du lac i would love to buy some things and pick them up from you when you go back to milwaukee
very very very very nice video..i learned some new tricks on fraggin them xD...I got a question though... when you cut the magician head, does the rest of the tissue left regrow head or maybe it just melts?
It will regrow
I was at MACNA, I live just outside of Milwaukee
I gots my reef Casa! 👌🥰🐶 well it still on boat on way here, but I order it already 🥰🐶
ITS COMING :D

difficult to get them off without hurting them
Could you tell us your upcoming new tanks and sizes? I'd love to see what's coming.
6g,18g,24g
