not to hi jack this thread but i have always wonder how to turn a frag of brain coral turn spherical looking "brain". do i shave of the LR that it's glued to and find a spherical looking LR?
I think you're talking about the skeletal structure. Might be best to post a picture of the area your referring to cutting. All brain corals I've seen have a pointed bottom and aren't very round. I've always kept mine on the sand bed of my tank so the shape of the base never bothered me.not to hi jack this thread but i have always wonder how to turn a frag of brain coral turn spherical looking "brain". do i shave of the LR that it's glued to and find a spherical looking LR?
As far as I know you will have to just let it heal itself from the fragging. BUT I've heard it's a slim chance if a fragged brain to make a full recovery because they tend to grow very slowly.yes, the thread was created when my comment was moved from another thread. but the point i was trying to make is that: i'm getting a wedge of the brain and i would like to know how to achieve the spherical looking brain coral, such as the pineapple brain coral.
sorry i was thinking open brains like lobos, trchys and wellsos. My fault. Brain wasn't working with me.
