Jack-O-Lantern Softies Saver Kit: No More Loose Frags!

Oftentimes, large barbaric critters such as hermits, snails, sea urchins, etc. may knock over and bother your new frags to death without any protection.

JOSS is a ‘Shroom Saver and a Frag Stand. Instead of the traditional ‘shroom boxes/cage style, the Oceanbox Designs Jack-O-Lantern Softies Saver (JOSS) simply snap fit onto a 1.25″ frag disk to protect soft coral frag (i.e. Toadstool, ‘Shroom, Kenya Tree, Sinularia, etc.) for grow out or attachment.
