Fragging Kenya tree?

[tony_caliente]

Is there any magic to this. or is it just snipping off a branch (in the water/out of the water?)

+1

cut it outside the tank, let it sit for awhile (it will get pissed and release chemical, they are very harmful to SPS) rinse it and put it back.

Gotcha! Thanks!

I never had that problem.. That one I had dropped 5-10 branches a week..

Yeah, the ones I've seen have been sort of "self-fragging"...

Use a blender LOL

+1 to the blender, lol. Everyone says xenia and gsp are the weeds of reef tanks, its been kenya for me. The branches fall off daily and will grow anywhere! I dont know the best method for fragging it, but the first piece i obtained the guy just reached in and tore it off. Been polluting my tank since.

I like them. I am sure, like the cockaroach and people who refuse to wear deodorant at work...they serve some ecological purpose. BTW, I have a nice guy coming by by a few minutes to pick them up.

thats good someone is coming by to pick them up, definitely doesn't seem right just to throw them away. I agree, I like them as well, they are pretty and grow great, can just get away from you if you arent careful. I usually just picked the branches off the sand, and placed them in the back of the tank behind rock. As stated before, they will grow anywhere. I think anybody just starting a reef tank should get some just to stay motivated seeing something growing!
