Dont cut that first one bro!! Just feed the crap out of it and by the time you have 4 polyps I will be ready for mine.

Lots of feeding to help em grow fast. I hadn't subscribed to it before, but lately i've been feeding my acans and micros and they have been growing insanely fast!

My friend frags them, then he uses that putty from home depot to make an area that goes right up to the cut, then it's smoothed out even. So when it grows, it doesnt grow down, it grows flat across.

so how often and what should you feed them?

I had been doing freeze dried cyclopeze every night and nothing seemd to have happened, they have grown just as much now with infrequent feedings.

I feed Mysis to each head along with Cyclopees flake and Krill regularly, and I just did that puddy thing Last night I was on one of Jendubs Blog!

Thanks Guys!

your friend knows the tricks!

up here we do the same thing...well my friends and I anyways...

I use some deltec two-part epoxy..and just as Rev said, use the putty to bring the edge of the frag right to the rock you're mounting it on...sorta like a smooth, gradual ramp....easy-peasie and works surprisingly well.
