Aqua Medic Coral Pins

About Aqua Medic Coral Pins

Aqua Medic Coral Pins are purpose-made frag stones designed for mounting and growing coral fragments. Their pin-style design provides a stable base for coral frags while allowing them to be positioned neatly within a frag system or reef aquarium.

They are particularly useful for coral propagation, fragging systems and aquaculture setups where multiple coral fragments need to be securely mounted and organised. Aqua Medic recommends using Reef Construct or Coral Construct to attach coral fragments to the pins.

The Coral Pins can also be used with the Aqua Medic frag board mag, allowing frags to be securely positioned and easily rearranged as they grow.

Aqua Medic offers Coral Pins in two pack sizes:

• 10 Pack — Item No. 230.06
