I was at the LFS this weekend and got a small hammer ( about 1.5 inches by 3.5 inches) and a trumpet coral (small, about 4 inches tall with 4 trumpets). Since they were small pieces they were not on rocks. I got two small rocks to attach them to, but being new to hard corals i am not sure how to attach them to the rock. I was told to use super glue, but i wanted to know the best way form some of yall before i went out and tried to glue them down. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Chip

Do they have stalks? With those types of corals, most people just wedge the stalk/base of the coral into a crack in the LR. Just make sure that the fleshy parts of the corals are free, and don't get banged up.

I agree with Sam, just wedge them in between some live rock. IMO, it would look unnatural if they were super glued to a piece of L/R.
