corals that grow on glass?

[jarvis]

is there any type of corals that will grow on glass. Do I have to wait for a nice huge patch of coralline algae to form fist?

Mushrooms i think can grow on glass but you pretty much have to place them there. You could super glue it to the glass.

You might have some luck with star polyps, i`m sure somehow it could be done. I`ve heard of people cuttiing off the dark purple base and attaching it to glass.

i have had star polyps and xenia to grow on glass.

Xenia is the one I most commonly see on the glass.

SPS, xenia, mushrooms, zooanthids, encrusting gorgonian, anthelia, star polyps, all grow on glass. The coral doesn't know the difference between glass and rock. It is just a new place for them to inhabit.

Going to give it a shot with tonga mushrooms. they match the coralline on rocks to well so they dont stand out as much as I would like them to. I got him pinned against the overflow with the suckion cup contraption from a powerhead. I will wait a few days then move his buddies over.
