Your Choice Aquatics 2″ Ceramic Frag Disc Packs – Reef-Safe Coral Propagation and Mounting Discs

About This Product

The Your Choice Aquatics 2″ Ceramic Frag Disc Packs provide a durable, versatile, and convenient solution for mounting, propagating, growing, and displaying coral fragments in saltwater reef aquariums. Featuring a generous 2-inch round ceramic mounting surface, these coral frag discs offer an excellent foundation for SPS, LPS, Zoanthids, Palythoa, and compatible soft corals.

Available in 25, 50, and 100-piece packs, these ceramic frag discs are suitable for reef aquarium hobbyists, dedicated coral collectors, aquarium retailers, and commercial coral propagation facilities.

Coral propagation plays an important role in sustainable reef aquarium keeping. By mounting fragments from established colonies onto suitable surfaces, aquarists can grow new coral colonies, expand their collections, and share aquacultured specimens with other enthusiasts.

The 2-inch diameter provides additional growing space compared with smaller coral plugs and discs. This larger mounting surface is particularly beneficial for encrusting Montipora, Chalice corals, Zoanthid gardens, and other corals that gradually spread across solid surfaces.

Constructed from ceramic rather than conventional cement, these frag discs provide a stable mounting foundation without the extended curing procedures often associated with freshly manufactured cement-based products. Ceramic mounting surfaces are well suited to reef aquarium applications when properly manufactured and prepared.

The textured mounting surface provides an attachment area for reef-safe cyanoacrylate gel and coral mounting epoxy. As a coral becomes established, its tissue may gradually encrust across the disc, creating a more natural and secure attachment.

The generous 2-inch surface makes these discs useful for mounting individual coral fragments or developing small colonies before moving them to permanent aquarium rockwork.

For SPS corals, the mounting surface provides room for skeletal attachment and initial encrustation. For Zoanthids and other colonial polyps, the additional area allows multiple polyps to establish and spread.

The ceramic construction also offers practical advantages during routine aquarium maintenance. Frag discs can be repositioned, inspected, and organized without disturbing surrounding rockwork, provided they are placed in compatible holders or stable locations.

Whether you’re establishing an SPS grow-out system, cultivating colorful Zoanthid colonies, propagating premium Chalice corals, or preparing specimens for frag swaps and resale, Your Choice Aquatics 2″ Ceramic Frag Disc Packs offer a practical and dependable coral mounting solution.

Recommended Applications

SPS Coral Propagation

The 2-inch ceramic frag disc provides a spacious foundation for SPS corals, including Acropora, Montipora, Birdsnest, Stylophora, and Pocillopora.

Branching coral fragments can be secured to the mounting surface using suitable reef-safe adhesive.

Encrusting SPS corals may gradually spread across the ceramic disc, establishing a larger base before being transferred to permanent aquarium rockwork.

Zoanthid and Palythoa Gardens

The larger disc surface makes these mounting accessories especially useful for growing colorful Zoanthid and Palythoa colonies.

Small clusters can be positioned on the disc, allowing new polyps to spread as the colony develops.

Safety Warning: Some Zoanthids and Palythoa may contain dangerous palytoxin. Wear appropriate protective equipment, avoid creating aerosols, and never boil, heat, or pressure-wash these corals or contaminated materials.

LPS Coral Propagation

Certain LPS fragments, including suitable Chalice corals and other encrusting varieties, may benefit from the broad ceramic mounting surface.

Corals with large fleshy polyps or more extensive skeletal structures should be given sufficient room for expansion and growth.

Soft Coral Propagation

Compatible soft coral fragments may be mounted using attachment methods appropriate for the species.

Some soft corals attach more successfully when temporarily secured with mesh, rubble, or other gentle methods rather than directly applying glue to living tissue.

Commercial Coral Grow-Out Systems

The 50- and 100-count packages are particularly convenient for aquarium shops, coral propagation facilities, and hobbyists who regularly grow and distribute coral fragments.

The discs allow corals to be organized and monitored individually while providing a consistent mounting format.

Installation and Usage Instructions

1. Inspect and Prepare the Frag Discs

Inspect each ceramic disc for cracks, sharp edges, loose debris, or visible manufacturing residue.

Rinse thoroughly with clean purified water or prepared saltwater before aquarium use.

Follow any additional preparation instructions supplied with the product.

2. Select a Healthy Coral Fragment

Choose a coral fragment appropriate for the 2-inch mounting surface.

Inspect the specimen for damaged tissue, visible pests, and other potential health concerns.

Use safe fragging techniques and appropriate protective equipment for the species.

3. Apply Reef-Safe Adhesive

Apply a suitable amount of reef-safe cyanoacrylate gel or coral mounting epoxy to the desired area.

Position the coral’s skeletal base or appropriate attachment surface against the adhesive.

Hold the coral securely until the bond begins to set.

Avoid covering sensitive living tissue with excessive adhesive.

4. Position the Mounted Coral

Place the disc in a stable propagation tray, compatible coral holder, or secure location within the aquarium.

Ensure that the disc cannot slide, tip over, or become displaced by aquarium water movement or livestock.

Verify the dimensions and mounting requirements of your particular frag rack or disc holder.

5. Provide Appropriate Lighting and Water Flow

Position each mounted coral according to its specific care requirements.

Different coral species require different lighting intensities, circulation patterns, and spacing.

The ceramic frag disc itself does not require a particular PAR value or water flow rate.

6. Monitor Coral Growth

Observe mounted corals regularly for healthy tissue expansion, secure attachment, and new growth.

Avoid unnecessary handling while the coral is becoming established.

When the colony outgrows its mounting surface, transfer it to a larger mount or permanent aquarium location if necessary.

Maintenance and Care Recommendations

Inspect mounted frag discs periodically for nuisance algae, accumulated detritus, and unwanted organisms.

Maintain adequate circulation around coral fragments while preventing damaging direct flow on sensitive species.

Provide sufficient separation between neighboring coral colonies to reduce aggressive contact and tissue damage.

Remove damaged discs that no longer provide a stable mounting surface.

When reusing a disc, carefully remove old adhesive and biological residue, then clean and rinse it thoroughly before mounting another fragment.

Avoid soaps, household detergents, and unapproved cleaning chemicals.

Maintain stable reef aquarium water parameters appropriate for the mounted coral species.
