    i have a couple questions though ive never bought corals that are on frag plugs and im wondering how you place them on your rock so that they stay and not fall. do you cut the little bottum part off and glue ?

    Depends on the plug - I actually cut mine off the plug and epoxy onto the rock - then grow out the plugs in another part of the tank. Easy to do with SPS. If your water is dialed in they are pretty forgiving I've found.

    Great scores. You can use epoxy or gel superglue. You can either glue thetile or pop the color off the tile and then glue the color in place.
