Pulsing Xenia question

[dawson]

I am wanting to frag my Xenia but am not sure on what to do. Some say use reef glue others have other opinions ( which i would like some ideas) but im not sure on what to do. When i finally do frag them how long will it take for them to attatch. -Thankyou-

It's pretty simple.
Just stick a tooth pick through the stalk and then rubber band it to a rock.
The tooth pick helps so you don't close off the stalk with the band.Put it in low flow for about 4-5 days and it will grow onto the rock.

just cut it at the base of the stalk and rubber band it or wedge it to a rock...it will attach in a day or 2

If you use a tooth pick, make sure you leave enough space from the bottom. I had one rip out because there wasn't enough to hold it down.

So can i take them out of the water to cut the stalk off

they will become a lump of mooosh if you take them out of the water lol. I cut mine in the water

No problem taking it out of the water to cut it up. As noted above the rubber band method works well.
You might want to ware some gloves. the stuff really stinks and the smell stays on your hands for awhile.
