Do you all let your chalices grow right onto rock? or onto disks then rock?

[padova335i]

I have several chalices.. Some are already encrusted/growing on rock (these rocks are removable if time should come to remove them from tank.. One of rock structures is a 1.5 feet high with 3 different chalices growing on the bottom part, sps on top...

I have several more chalices i would like to add to the front and back of my rock which is permanently fixed to my center overflow.. would this be a nightmare to remove down the road? or is it ok just to let it take over like sps?

I may glue the chalices to a plate, then glue them to the rock for easy removal..

Just want to get some feedback from members and see what all of you are doing with them.

If you look at watchguy123 he makes putty disks and overlays them on his rock for easy removal if needed Check out his awesome chalice thread
