Quantum Zoa Cone Frag Plug 50 Pack — Bulk Tapered Ceramic Cones for Zoanthid Propagation
A thriving zoanthid colony throws off frags faster than most keepers can find homes for them, and each one needs a base. Quantum Zoa Cone Frag Plug 50 Pack (SKU: QA700550) supplies fifty Reef Essential ceramic cones, each tapering from an 18 mm face to a 7 mm point, in the quantity a propagation rack or a regular frag seller gets through. The wide end takes the polyps and the coral glue; the narrow end seats into a rack hole or wedges into live rock so the frag stays where it is put.
The cones are ICP-OES analysed by batch and need no curing, so a pack opened on Saturday is on the rack by Saturday afternoon. Compared with a flat disc, the cone’s small footprint lets fifty frags sit close together on a rack, and when they move to a display the point tucks into rock and the base vanishes under spreading polyps. The rough surface is the same across the Quantum plug family, giving both adhesive and tissue something to hold. Fifty cones also suit ricordea, discosoma and small softies that prefer a compact base.
Usage & Application
When to Use
- Zoanthid farming: Bulk cones for keepers who thin and mount colonies every week and sell or swap the results.
- Dense frag racks: The narrow base packs more frags into the same rack area than discs allow.
- Mounting into rock: The 7 mm point wedges into crevices so display placement needs little or no glue and can be adjusted later.
- Mushroom and softie frags: Small pieces of ricordea and discosoma settle on a cone without an oversized disc around them.
How to Use
- No curing: Use from the pack; an optional rinse in tank water is all that is needed before mounting begins.
- Prepare the face: Blot the 18 mm end dry before adding a small bead of coral glue.
- Hold briefly: Press the frag on for a few seconds until the glue grips the textured ceramic, then leave it to set.
- Rack first, rock later: Grow the frag out in a rack for a few weeks, then push the taper into a crevice in the display rockwork.

- ICP-OES analysed: Batch-tested ceramic that is ready to use without a curing period.
