The file 'Shane’s Coral Frag Plugs 3D Printer Model' is (stl) file type, size is 1.3MB.
This Thing is a coral frag plug that is used when propagating (i.e. "fragging") coral in the saltwater aquarium hobby.
Coral fragments are either cut or broken off of the mother colony and then glued to this frag plug using cyanoacrylate gel (superglue). The resulting fragged coral plug is mounted into 14mm eggcrate that is submerged in the saltwater aquarium where it is left until it is either traded with another hobbyist or sold at a frag swap.
I have uploaded four variations on a concept that I have been toying with for what might be useful to a coral farmer. I am keenly interested in optimizing this concept so that it Works for those needing a good, quality, multi-purpose coral frag plug so please leave comments on how I might improve this Thing.
