Frogspawn

[fishman]

I have a new cluster of frogspawn in my 5 year old 100 gallon tank. The coral itself is on a stalk if you will and I cant find a place for it. Do I glue it to a rock? Does the stalk grow with the coral? How do these things grow? It is getting fuller but I have the stalk inside of a peice of PVC that is stuck into the sand. If I need to glue it to a rock then let me know this.
Thanks

I've never had luck gluing soft slimy coral to rocks. Is it so that maybe a toothpick can go thru thru bottom and then be attached to a rock? Keep in mind a healthy frogspawn could triple in size in a year easily IMO, so no real small rock. Not large either.

Check this post out that'll help with the toothpick/rubberband method.

Good question as I'd like to know the answer too. I stuck mine in the sand. There are new heads growing out of the stalk in many different places. I was going to stick the stalk between a couple of rocks. I'll wait for others to chime in.

It'd be my luck it sticks to both rocks.

I have mine stuck in the sand now. It's been that way for almost a year now and has not been knocked over.
