Colt Coral...
 
Hi All,

I just a new piece of colt coral - what is the best way to secure this to
the LR?

I hear a wooden toothpick is best but surely the wood will pot away and
polute the tank?

Thanks,

The weird thing is that I just pushed it into a hole in the rock - it has
now anchored itself there....

Excellent ! Sounds like you can skip the gory part. : )
I had a hard time in the beginning thinking that
I can use super glue to anchor down mushrooms.
It just doesn't sound right.

Good luck.

Well, to be honest I'm not sure they NEED to be secured to a rock.
I guess you can leave them in the gravel, I don't know if that's conducive
to them
breaking off into more.

I have mine low in the tank with very little flow on them.

My mushrooms are still just loosly attached to the gravel and are always
moving around but they seems quite happy.

Should I secure them - what would be a good place to put them?
