Rings can put SPS with T type stand.

Drill holes also can use T type stand and t can be removed if you like this SPS there.

Wow!!! Epoxy rings for acro colonies. Never thought of that, brilliant!! Also easier to move larger pieces if you had to I suppose. Well done sir. Where did you learn this technique? What is your favorite brand of epoxy and glue to use? Thanks for sharing. -Greg

All of these are from what I imagination.
The epoxy just bought from local farm in Taiwan, very good quality.

I have been back tracking on reading your thread and you have a large acro that's stripping in the centre and you cut it up.I have a similar thing happening to a very large SSC with a centre branch losing flesh is it best practice to remove the colony a cut out the stripped piece .Its one of my favourite pieces approx. 8 inches this has happened when I changed the rotors in my gyres power heads .If I leave it will it settle down or continue stripping.

thanks Bill

from experience and discussion with some of sps reefer in Taiwan, it seems the strip from centre branch this sps almost can not survive no mater how small piece you cut it from this sps.
I remember I cut my sps in about 20 small pieces but non of one survive.

Maybe someone else has better method to make it survived, I just do not know.
