What to do with broken off coral frags

[mightykieth]

Hi all:

So I had a couple of coral fragments break off of a main colony attached to a rock, and they just sat on the floor of my tank. I thought they might be dead, but thy're showing signs of life (see pics). I was kinda hoping to give them away, but should I attach them to a plug or something in the interim? Thanks!

Place them on a plug!

See if you can get credit from a local fish store...

I like to spread frags around my tank (assuming they aren't a species that will take over) to make it look more natural. As stated, a lot of LFS will give you credit for that stuff also.

Thanks for the responses! I did in fact get them on a plug and got some store credit at my local shop. The pipe organ keeps growing so I'll keep an eye on it and note any frag swaps in my region. Thanks again everyone!
