Man I love it!
Looks like an art exibit, each coral is like a growing piece of art, each on it's own pedestal.:thumbsup:
When the corals get larger, do they end up being top heavy? Do they start to tip over easy? Do you then glue two tiles together to make the base heavier?
first off, thank you so much
i definately take the approach of them all being a peice of living art, and its one reason for my method... however, again i will say as always, a standard 75g is totally the wrong tank for this presentation, but i am working on it :beer:
now, lets take the green acro for example, by far the heaviest and biggest thus far... the tiles are actually quite dense and heavy consdering, and though i need to come up with some better adhesive, that is much stronger than jus reef glue (boy i have gone through a ton lol), when they are stacked, it seems the weight and the energy caused from it, goes straight down the stack... which is a good thing, and i have had no problems with swaying or tipping, even on the taller ones, which some are 17 tiles high... so yes, all the tiles are "adhered" to each other... actually, when i redo my setup, i found some other tiles that are much more "raw" in material and texture, and after experimenting with them a little, some solid reef glue should work jus fine, but im still trying it out long term... on my next setup, i want to be able to remove the corals much more easily without pulling the whole column up as that can be dangerous for corals below... I dont know how to properly explain my new ideas and approach for my next tank, which will feature a "tile built architecture" and aquascape, but i really jus want the coral to have a few tiles attached to the bottom to hold it in place, but to have it fit into the rest of the column to give it the height, if that makes any sense...
