Show us your creative (crazy?) coral placement

[droth335]

We all eventually run out of space in our tanks for placing coral and have to resort to creative methods to get add more corals. We have resorted to using the back wall of our 280 to add a new dimension for corals to grow.

Share pics of how you were able to add that "just one more" coral to your tanks

Here are ours to start the discussion (apologies in advance for the cell phone pics!):

I like it how reattach them

 

[Lunabud74]

Nice! How, what are you using to attach them?

 

[droth335]

Super glue gel & putty holds them well until they encrust. Those have been attached for about 18 months. Both started out as frags.

Putty around frag then superglue putty to glass?

Superglue on both sides of putty (tank & coral sides) seems to hold best.

thanks!

Do you have a before picture?

This was as close to a before picture as I could find (11 months ago). You can see the hyndophora was recently stuck to the back wall and if you look closely you can see the monti cap on the right was quite small (look just above the bright green psammocora . The acros you can see in the first pic have been attached for less than a month (first time to try with acros)
