COTW: Sarcophyton sp.

You should be fine, although relying on the glue alone to hold it in place may be optimistic if it is a larger piece. You may want to wedge it in place with another rock(s) in addition to the glue.

Good idea. I tried to attach a capnella tree with rubber bands once and the rubber band decapitated the tree. Not good. I will test it out and hopfully all will work well.
Any suggestions on glue?
I know to get the gel, but does brand matter?

Thomas712...good question. Phosphate sponges have been mentioned as a source of irratation(sic) for many leathers. I use Kents Phosphate sponge once a month or so for about 48 hrs each time. I have never had a problem with any of the leathers in my system.The Phosphate sponge is located remote from the display in a high flow area of the sump...I use about one third of a cup in a 300 micron bag for a limited amount of time. In my situation/circumstances it has not been a problem.
cmpowell...a trip to branson is always fun...even back in the late 60's and early 70's when Branson was just another little town in the southern part of Missouri.I grew up in Fredericktown and after military service returned to go to college at SEMO...so the general area is sort of like home to me.:cool:

When I recently moved I had the same question.I just gently pulled them from the rock and they came off with no problem.It felt weird because I was afraid of damaging them in the process and now they are thriving.Hope this helps!

Here is my toadstool. It has gotten huge since I bought it. Awesome coral addition. It is right up on top w/ good flow and 800 watts of VHO.

I asked on a different thread about what does it mean when the stock rots away? The LFS by me seems to get toadstools in all the time, but they always look like their stocks are rotting away and I have even seen some without the stalk altogether. I don't buy livestock from this LFS anymore because of the trouble i had in the beginning (before i found this web site) with a few fish i baught from them. I just wanted to know about the stock and what it ment when it didn't have one or was losing it? Thanks
