I have a colony of zoas they are in a frag plug and they are growing around it and out into the sand bed so I want to frag what ever is around, the reason I dont let them grom is because I havent found a rock where I want them to settle
Theres a pic if more are need it let me know ------------- It's not about what you know but about who you know |

| I just tear them apart, and dip them on revive. It has work for me although i do caution to wear safety glasses you do not want what they squirt into your eyes |

When you are fragging zoas be very careful to wear eye protection and latex cloves. Zoas and Play's are very toxic. I use a sharp razor blade or exacto knife and an old tweezers. Cut the zoas off the rock and glue them to a frag plug/rubble or whatever you want to glue them to. I use the gorilla super glue, that seems to work best for me. Should you have any questions, feel free to give me a call or pm.
