Corals on the back glass

[Chrisfish]

I had a montipora grow on my back wall of the tank and a red planet on my overflow of my last tank

Beautiful tank!!

 

[Chrisfish]

I grew gsp on the overflow of an old tank I had, and on my current tank, i use magnetic airline/hose clips to mount corals to the glass.

Really nice tank!!

I glued my red planet on my overflow for 2 reasons. 1 I'm hoping it tables out. And 2 I looked for this coral for a while.. So when I found it I didn't want to lose it by having it fall back in the rock work somewhere.. So it was a place I wouldn't lose it

Its the only place I'll let green star polyps grow. Just a bit of glue on the base of a frag, they do the rest.

hydno and sps stuck to the wall~

Looks great guys! Thanks for posting. I glued up a couple of frags the other day and promptly knocked them off the glass the next day during a cleaning. I think I'll give superglue another shot though.

Optical illusion=psych

turns out it was a four inch total wall, with a two inch aquascape space heh. had to use the wall.... no where else to plant frags~

After 24 mos, worlds smallest tabletop acro off back wall (ya I know it's brown this was 2002 and brown frags were all landlocked texans could get lol)

The way the hydno was kept same size was by sawing the end off with a hacksaw about halfway down. Looked ugly after cut, replated back over cut, sawed again while sps was allowed to go forward two inches.

That's pretty tight!

yours all look nice... I have some GSP that i have stashed to the side so it doesn't grow on anything and it grew up the wall

 

[mrnewberry]

It seems like the glass is a good spot for gsp. It is pretty cool looking and you can keep it isolated.

 

[Ebone]

just does its thing... and oddly in a sps dominated mixed reef

Awesome montiporas. I have started GSP and some green and brown plays. I super glued some green mushrooms and have had hairy mushrooms in my old tank. I like the idea of bird nests. It must give the impression of a backless tank.

The entire back glass and internal overflow if my 5 foot 100G was covered with zoanthids with one small section of zenia on one top corner. Made it easy to frag and kept the zenia off the rocks. Also had a couple colors of monti caps on there at one time too.

I want to see a pic of this please

I have seen shrooms and xenia jump on the walls and spread ...no glue needed
