Fish keep knocking over corals! frustrating

[Joezreef]

My fish keep knocking down my new le corals over......I have them glued but my fish keep knocking them over...I have a few bigger fish over 12" seems they keep me glueing my sps back!
kinda fructrating!

anyone else have this problem?

All the time. If they haven't encrusted to the rock it seems eventually my fish will knock it off. I guess that's what I get for haveing alot of fish. LOL

[Joezreef]

[Joezreef]

i put my fragments on a heavy rock and then also glue that. Reason for fragments on a heavy rock is if i ever want to frag it i can take it out of the tank and frag, but if it encrust onto my rockwork it'll be hard to frag and my fish cant knock it over either

A lot of reefers use my donuts for what you are talking about. Little heavier than a frag plug or rubble. Oddly shaped to fit into rockwork more securely. Click on the link for pics.

I watched my Clownfish get a running start and plow some corals over. When a coral or even rock was in its path it would get knocked over. That clownfish is now in sump jail

I've always had a problem with different wrasses knocking over zoanthid frags looking for critters to eat.
My melenarus wrasse is a real pain in the *%*.
He will knock frag plugs completely out of my eggcrate frag racks looking for brittle stars that hide under the frag plugs.
