what can i grow on my back wall?

[lazycouch]

I never recommend a hard encrusting coral on glass. If it dies or you shut down, the area will forever have the skeleton attached. You can remove it with difficulty, but soft corals are definitely the way to go.

yessir!

I'll get a better shot when I return home from pet sitting, this is all I have presently.

You can see it on the side with the fox face. it's since grown a bit more

and I also have a green monti growing on the back too.

yeah would be cool to get a closer look! hows the flow in that area? has it ever detached and you had to put it back? it’d be cool to have a couple on the back wall but i fear they will detach and fall into a flow zone!! is there anything you’ve done to avoid this as much as possible?

I will get a better shot soon!

I actually had magnetic rocks that attached to the wall (you can see it dangling back there) and the mushrooms spread to the wall from that rock. It was purely unintentional and done by accident. It seems to be firmly planted there and happy enough- then again I never tried to take it off to see how firmly it is.

The flow is moderately strong, I'd say. Its not in direct flow

What's that gigantic coral right above the clown?

I want to say Singularia? I could be wrong. Unfortunately I don't remember the names of it.

i get it at a local art store by the bucket but i’m sure you can find it online somewhere. it’s basically what some sell as “reef putty” but in its pure form, you boil water drop some beads in and the result is something like melted plastic in which you can make blobs with to stick on live rock or form whatever you want really i’ve made actual plugs with it and then used the same plastic to stick those plugs on to the rocks+ it hardens quicker when in comes in contact with water so works out great when you need it to.

Thanks made it easy to understand

My green staghorn is encrusting on the back glass.

The remote WWC store in Winter Park put torch corals on their back wall. Looked very unique but didn’t think to take a picture of it while I was there.
