How do I relocate a leather coral?

[dobiemama]

I have a little leather that isn't thriving, I'm assuming because some mushroom corals are touching it around the base. My question is how do I first remove the leather, then how do reattach somewhere else? Is this a job for a butter knife and super glue?

If it's attached to a smaller rock, just move that. If not, use a razor blade and cut along the base where it attaches to the rock, then super glue/ rubber band it to a new rock. I've noticed that since leathers are more porous it's hard to get them to stick, so keeping it in lower flow for a week or so will help.

Had to say Hi, and I love your dog. We are thinking about getting another dobie if we could find a nice one in our area.

Oh and good luck with your coral.

She's a very nice dog and titled too--SchH3, WD3, and for the winter we're doing agility. If you're serious about a dobie--working, show line, or pet--you can check for breedings at either the United Doberman Club or Doberman Pinscher Club of America. You can usually find reputable breeders there. Good luck.

Thanks, We had our female for almost 10 yrs. We are looking for a quality pet with a good disposition.
