I got a nice Lord from Dave at Ocean's Floor in Chicago about three months ago (30 polyps) and it has started producing smakll new polyps (literally dozens) along its outer edge.
My question regards propping the colony. If I put the colony next too or a frag of the colony on another rock, will the polyps adhere and begin colonizing that new rock? OR Am I just better of cutting a few frags from the colony and mounting them on plugs, thereby forming small colonies?
I would prefer the "encrusting method" as it seems less invasive to the colony to NOT dremel it into little piecesbut my info and experience with Lords is limited.
Any thoughts?
Anyone?
