*after you stick the frag to the rock wait for about 30 seconds and then dip it into a bowl of saltwater....this will allow the glue to dry quicker
I did my first *attaching* yesterday. I bought the superglue gel, dried the little rock a bit, put a dab of glue to the rock, picked the frag from the water bowl, pressed it into the rock and put the combo back into the bowl. Sure enough it did attach and now it's already blooming in my tank I was so scared to do it, but one of the new corals that I got yesterday wasn't attached to anything so I had to do it. You can do it Crash!

The bad part is the rock I want to attatch to is the big one that all the others are sitting on .

Thanks again to turnning tim for all he gave me . With out him this wouldn't have happened .

Looks GREAT! Those blue spot shrooms like your tank much better than mine! You need a center piece. That white hammer I have would look mighty nice in there. Or maybe a frag of the candy I have.......
I'm sure we can make a deal!
You've done very well my friend! Looks very well done!

When are you getting your mantis? Your tank looks gorgeous, btw.

 

[spiderwoman]

I was going to ask the same thing. Are you going for the store in NC? If it was closer, I'd go and cherry pick one for ya

 

[sexyshrimp101]

The tank looks really nice

But I can't seem to shake the feeling that something is missing...hmmm...

 

[el guapo]

Too funny

Currently there are no O.scyllarus avalible .

and at a little over 100 bucks with shipping I am debating spending the money on something else .

It actually looks like they are sold out of just about everything they stock . I hope they aren't closing up shop .

There are a few stores in CA that have O.Scyllarus Mantis in stock. They would be way closer to you than the NC one.
