coral placement

by blueshoes2208

ok so ive noticed that no matter where i put my coral frags they always get moved... either by snails or by fish nips so is there a trick to getting the frags to stay where i put them other than wedging htem inbetween rocks??

They sell reef safe glue at the LFS's. I've used it and it works very well. I have the same problem with my Blue Hippo Tang who likes rearranging any new corals I put in the tank

Yeah both of them are right. OR you can go to Home Depot and buy Aqua Mend. 4-5 bucks and it will literally cement your frags in place. Its like silly putty thats REALLY strong.

sorry lads been on holidays in the gold coast. yeah use aqua minute mend putty, molds well, is cheap and and a stick lasts for ages. once Coraline grows over it cant tell the diff between LR and putty
