impur Posted June 28, 2006 Author Share Posted June 28, 2006 And a shot of my zoo garden. I love all the colors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spayne Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 B-E-A-utiful zoas! You have some very nice pieces, that is for sure. And yeah, you will certainly be getting a frag of the pinks. You're next in line. Roy gave me some great advice about using a dremel with a diamond bit/tip/thingy for fragging, too. So I'm ready to bust into some rock... well, once Jay tells me where the dremel is and I get the bit. Once all my new additions are happy I'll get an updated shot of my zoanthid garden. It's starting to get pretty massive! (laugh) Stacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanF Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Be careful using the dremel to frag zoos. Zoos tend to spray their nasty zoo juice all over the place if you hit them with the dremel. A buddy of mine was fragging some and tried to just cut right through the middle of them and ended up spraying himself in the face. Kinda sucked. I prefer the good old hammer and chisel for them alot less messy that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course wear my protective eye goggles and remind myself not to be a mouth breather! (laugh) One of these days we need to have a workshop on fragging softies. The hard coral are easy in my opinion. Well, aside from the meat/donut corals and stuff. I don't know if you can frag them! Or brains! Course, I suppose you can frag anything if you set your mind to it! Oops! I dropped it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanF Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 We will just wait until we have all had a bad day and take it out on some poor unsuspecting corals. I don't know if you can frag the brains with only one mouth. The closed brains Favia, Favites, Diplo and the like are quite easy to frag with the dremel. I always just score them with the dremel diamond wheel because they are usually quite thick and then take the hammer and chisel and finish it off. Acropora aren't nearly as stress relieving to frag they break to easy.(laugh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr S Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Miles, what kind of lights are you running on your zoa's? I think maybe a zoo fragging party is in the future works. We just need to find someone who can get us large colonies to bust up!!! Nice zoo pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

impur Posted August 26, 2006 Author Share Posted August 26, 2006 I am using a 250w 14k hammy bulb. But soon going to T5s, i hope they keep their color! If we can find some larger colonies where everyone can get at least a couple polyps count me in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr S Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I will try to get a zoa frag party going. I am working on it at this moment. I would assume the usual people will want in on it. Most of the sps frag partiers will probably do it again. Will keep you posted. I know some of those blue zoos of yours would reserve you a spot on the list!!!! heh heh heh LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spayne Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I would assume the usual people will want in on it. Does a bear... er, wrong forum! I am so in on a zoa frag-fest! We need to try to score some premium colonies if we can. That would be awesome! (rock2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
