Fragging options
 
I was curious to see what most of you do with your frags. I'm asking because I have to start fragging soon and I'm looking for options. Do you frag and glue on a plug then place the plug on LR/sand, do you frag and glue straight on LR? I'm currently undecided which technique I want to use and looking for pros and cons for both methods.

There isnt a method that works for absoluely everything so I use a variety of techniques and choose one that best suits each situation.

Any tips for fragging gorgorians mines gettin to the top of the tank lol

I follow this method for mine. I cut off a stock, scrape some tissue off of the bottom to reveal the underlying gorgonin structure and then plug that into a drilled hole in a disk stuffed with epoxy. However if yours is a fan type I'm not really sure what you do.
