For those that might not have already know - inverting the SPS frags actually helps the speeding up of its growth. All the inverted polyps will grow to become the tips.

For my friend Mr Fisherman...hehehhhe :P buay bao si

but we need coral glue to stick it with Reef Plugs woh. Quite troublesome also if those glue and plugs didnt found at LFS. hehe!!

Remember, Save a Coral in the sea, Growth them from ur tank.....

Remember to use a sharp equipment to cut it, else you will hurt more it's wound....

Currently i propograte my LPS now. Later will try SPS...

Yeah I've tried this method once and its great!!!

Just bear with it being awkward for some time but once it starts to grow, it'll look normal :lol::lol:

But if you tame me, we shall need each other.

Maybe will try again if I can have some stylopora frags... :P:P

Basically I glue them as single stick frags

But its interesting to try glueing the whole colony like that (if you are willing to try :P:P )
