Hey I do have a question...I notice on some of your frags it looks like you use fishing line to tie them down. Why do you do that?

We have adopted a practice of using the plugs especially made for use with fishing line. This is not done by many but is far less aggressive than gluing, glue kills all tissue upon contact, the coral then has to grow back over the dried glue.

When frags are tied down using our closely guarded tying secret, they encrust the base much faster and are less traumatized in the process. Once they have encrusted they often absorb the line or you can just cut it.

This is an O.C. exclusive for the lower mainland as far as we know. For the frags that are required to be glued down we use a special cement instead of cyanoacrylate, works much better and does not break loose like glue often does.

Hope that explains it!
