Might be a silly question

When you add a coral to your display do you take it off the plug and secure it or just let is grow and surround the plug?

Let it grow on the frag . Otherwise you might damage the frag

That's what i figured thanks

Typically leave it on the plug for easy moving incase the frag is not happy in the current spot. Once the coral started growing then I'd glue it either with the plug or cut the stem off the plug to glue in its permanent spot.

makes sense

My mother doesn't like the plug look in her tank. She only has a 10 IM. So I put them on the rocks for her. NOW her cloves are taking over and I told her LOL I told you so. I don't mind the disc look.

I usually cut the stem off of the plug then glue the plug down.

Yep. I actually just use a decent pair of scissors. Snaps it right off but I'm guessing bone cutters would be a better option.
