2/26 (Sat) 1pm Fragging workshop @Fish Doctor, Pacifica

[Chromis]

In preparation for our Members’ Swap on 3/19, we are having a fragging/dipping workshop on Saturday, 2/26 1-3pm at The Fish Doctor in Pacifica.

Location: 1724B Palmetto Avenue, Pacifica, CA

Supporting members are welcome, can bring a guest (space permitting). No children since we will have some potentially dangerous equipment active.

We will be discussing and getting hands-on practice with techniques for fragging coral, mounting coral to plugs/rock, using frag containers/swap labels, dipping new frags for pests, and whatever else you guys would like. We will have band saws, bone cutters, scalpels, glue, plugs, rubble, etc to use. If you want to bring your own tools or donate some consumables, great (and let us know). Everyone should bring your own safety glasses, and gloves if you’ll use them.

We will need people to bring some coral colonies that you would like to have fragged up. It will help to have a variety of types of coral to practice on. What you do with the resulting frags of colonies you bring is completely up to you; options include taking them home again, donating some or all to the swap, giving or selling to the folks there, etc. Whatever makes sense for you, just have something in mind by the day of. The main thing we need is coral to practice on. Even dead coral skeletons would be helpful for practice.

[Arvin R]

It's a maybe for me. My schedule has been very up in the air with work sending me out of town every week for the past month. Hope I can make it!

 

[H2OPlayar]

Great excuse for me to frag those larger colonies I have been waiting to get to!

 

[Coral reefer]

Would be nice to get some of the maybes to change to yes or no. If we are only going to have 2 people come it might not be worth the time and effort…

 

[tankguy]

mine is now a yes

 

[CaseyP]

Changed mine to no It's a 25% chance I'm going since I'd be coming from Dublin and new dad duties may come up. Bummer since I have a goni and torch I'd love to learn how to frag.
