Let me see your liferock branch scapes

[drcole]

I have aquired a bunch of liferock branch and I am wanting to use it to scape my RSR 250. Interested in any advice or pictures of those who have created scapes with this rock, TIA!

Sounds like a beautiful idea. Looking forward to seeing the pics. [emoji846]

Not.mine but saw these today in a lfs. Made by carribsea branch life rock

would be interesting to see how these will look with mature corals on them. They also make coral placement very easy and will allow for good water flow as theyre pretty open.

I had chunks of misc. branch that I used Epoputty to glue together. This was about 14 months ago. I will try to get a current pic up.
I am working on getting different types of cyphastreas and leptastreas to populate the branch stems and some different milles, garf bonsai and such growing off of the tips. Was intending to be a zoa tank, but LPS and SPS seem to like it better.

Forgot to add......when assembling, keep a cup of coarse sand, crushed rock/aragonite to press into your putty joints before they set. It will give it a more natural look.

I have seen multiple branch scapes being held together by the cable ties, do people just leave the ties in place or do the mortar and remove??

Zip ties are removed after epoxy is applied. This is inna store so scape stillnhas to.be moved believe thats why they left the zip ties.
