Montipora spongodes on overflow

Docdiggy · Mar 26, 2015

Has anyone ever grown this on their overflow? If so, how did you get it to attach?

Mine is not in the overflow, but I've seen it on the back wall of a tank. You can get frag plus with built in magnets and attach it that way. Or find a really good super glue and glue it into your overflow.

I've got a green montipora digitata on mine.

Wow that's a nice green. Mine went brown once I got it home. I thought about glue. I'm afraid it would crack the overflow if I ever tried to remove it.

Yeah I'm just probably never removing it. Or using a flat head hammer or scraper. But honestly the glue is enough to hold it but a good tug would pull it off.

What lights are you running? I read some people had theirs go brown but, end up turning green.

I'm running T5 lights. 6 x 48. 4 ati blue plus and 2 aqua blue special. I just put mine in though. It came from a friend's tank where he was running mh lights. Ask me again in 2 months
