Placing my Frogspawn
I decided to take everyones advise and move my frogspawn. My question is how do you place it on rock? It has a hard base like a stalk. I found a hole in my rock, and it fits in there perfect, with only the tissue outside the rock and the rest in the hole. Will it be fine just setting it there, or does the stalk have to be more exposed?

Re: Placing my Frogspawn
Thats the way I have mine, just make sure that it doesn't come in contact with any other corals...

Re: Placing my Frogspawn
I like to wedge mine between two rocks with just about an inch of the stem protruding out. that way it can expand all it wants to without being restricted by the rocks around it. Just me though

Not only do frogspawns reproduce by splitting but actual smaller stems pop from the base and sometimes they drop.

Re: Placing my Frogspawn
yeah I hope you find a great place for it, you will be happy once you did because there is a real good chance it will split

Re: Placing my Frogspawn
I used a piece of 1 inch clear vinyl tubing. you can wedge it in the rock or sand, whichever you desire. make it the legth that you want, and drop the stalk of the coral in it. when the polyps are expanded you cannot see the tubing. worked much better than glue for me. and if I decide to move it, I can.

Re: Placing my Frogspawn
GREAT IDEA. I never thought if that. I may give that a shot if I run into problems in the future
