Hi Everybody!

I recently purchased a Gryphon Aquasaw, as I have several other 'advanced' LPS to frag up, like my wall euyphillias, trachs and at least one elegance, so I have been doing a lot of research.

Although I have a big tank, my cynarina is getting too large (the one in my avatar, which was almost four years ago). However, on that I can't find a whole lot of information on is the cynarina and I'm not going to attempt it until I am completely comfortable. I plan on starting to target feeding it as part of the process, hopefully in a few months I can pull this off.

This post seems to have some good information:

I have antibiotics (metro and furan mainly, perhaps some others) on hand, an iodine solution as well as 'Brightwell Restor' (which was recommended by Elite Reef Denver in their videos).

Has anyone out there attempted fragging a cynarina before? I look forward to this discussion!
 
Any update available on this one?
No, unfortunately it died a few months later during a move (of about 600km), lost all sorts of good stuff that year. Most of which I have recovered since, but I decided to put a pistol shrimp in my 220 for my watchman, so now 1/2 my sandbed is unusable for a couple years, LOL...

Ah that is unfortunate, thanks for the response. There is a nice Cynarina at my LFS (with a price tag to match) and wondering if I should make the jump. Would if I could frag it for some friends but seems overly risky.
