Mounting Monti Cap Frag/GBTA

[ReeferNets]

Can someone please help me with this frag. Dave Malulu gave me a piece but as you all know i am not into coral that much.. It keeps getting knocked around by my hermits.


Also anyone interested in a 2- 3 inch green bubble tip anemone. It just split into two and now i have an extra. It will be all healed up in at leas a week.

You can try gluing the frag onto a piece of rock rubble. Just use crazy glue gel.

when you take the Cap out of the water, it most likely will "expell" some slimmy stuff, you should use a dry paper towel to wipe the bottom of the Cap, then drip some glue gel on a small piece of rock, wait about 5 seconds, then put the Cap's bottom to the glue (do not apply force, it is crispy, will break off if using force) wait 5 to 10 seconds, then put them all back in the water.

you can use this glue gel http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=86082-133-86082&lpage=none from loews, or the glue we get from the group buy http://www.njreefers.org/forums/index.php/topic,2063.0.html (if you did not get some last time, pls check with Phyl, i think the club have some extra that you can buy)

i personally like the one from Lowes better, it is THICK! the one from the group buy is thiner, not too east to glue compare to the one from Lowes, but the price of the group buy one is ir-resist-able cheap!!! (i got 5 bottles! ;D) i would still stock one or 2 small ones from Lowes (don't know why, just want to have *everything* at hangs just in case... I guess...)
