How to attach this coral

Wolf89 · Dec 15, 2019

I just got a 6" x 6" montipora, with no base, just skeleton. How do I attach this to the rockwork?

Got a pic, depending on species it will require different light intensity. Just glue the skeleton where you want it.

I'd use a combination of epoxy and coral glue to make sure it sticks

Typically mid level in the tank. I've seen season greetings labeled as capricornis to undata. Post a pic when you can.

Green is where I think it should go

Nice! Looks like capricornis. I think it will do fine there.

While I would agree with you on placement, just keep in mind as it grows and plates out, it will shade everything underneath it.

Just got rid of the red capricornis(kept a thumbnail sized frag. Stuff grows like a weed.) in my tank as it got to big and was killing everything with how it was shading.
