Hey Reefers,
This is my first time gluing my corals and I accidently ended up placing my Duncan coral backwards. I hate the place where I have my tank. Worst place ever. Anyways, what should I do? I used an epoxy glue mix. Should I pull it off before the epoxy fully cures?

If you don't like it move it.. Now is the time to do it before epoxy sets, you can prob get something behind the plug to gently pry it out if the epoxy is already hardening
 
I don't see any difference other than it being slightly turned? They grow new heads so quickly that it probably wouldn't have made a difference if you left it like it was (with the one head on the bottom). I know how it is though when you see something you don't like in your tank....must be corrected :)
 
Yeah, it would have adjusted itself and grew properly. SPS is a little more important as far as what side faces the light. When I first read that you put it on backwards I thought you glued the mouth side to the rock :eek:
 
Good to see you problem is solved. You can take it off the frag plug and glue it directly on the rocks. It will be overgrown soon. Looks great.
