    Thank would depend on the SPS. Acros no more than half way. Plating and encrusting probably 3/4 of the way down. When the corals get big enough that you want to frag them try the frags at different levels to test out your lights.

    Nice advice. Thank you.

    You know, I just discovered Salt Water epoxy...lol Corailine had to explain it to me! Makes placing SPS way easier!

    LMAO.


    Here is a tip:

    After you mead the epoxy together, put some gel super glue where the frag will go and on the side that will attach to the rock. I think this makes it sturdier.

    But wouldn't it dry immediately after touching the water? I am wanting to attack my monti. cap. to a rock and its not removable without destroying everything.

    Also, where around here can I get some?

    Every system is different. I drop from 12dkh to 9 every two days and Ca drops about 75 a day for me.
