    Default Paying it forward... part 1

    I have a coral that I was told is a "rainbow montipora" when I first bought it on a 1" diameter frag plug. At the time, it covered maybe half of it. Today, the plug is covered completely, and I have about 9 square inches of growth covering the rock it was on. I used a screwdriver and pried up the frag plug part - it popped off clean - and neither part seems to have noticed.

    I am no expert, but it looks a lot like this - http://www.indoreefclub.com/Images/c...%20rainbow.jpg - which is an image I found online, and is NOT my coral.

    So now, I have a free frag for someone who is interested. It has grown well under my T5 lights, but I don't think I would put it under the PC lights at the office. Certainly it would thrive under better lights.

    I am in Bloomfield Township. It's free to the first request. Sorry, I wouldn't have a clue how to ship it...
    Thanks ALWAYSFISHIN thanked for this post

    I am sure LEDs can work fine. I am home Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings after six. Let me know if one works for you, and I can PM you my address.

    Did someone already take the frag by chance? Sounds like a beautiful piece I'd love to give it a try as well.
