Just joined, and would like to thank all posters. I did a lot of research before setting up my tank, and this site was most helpful. Thanks y'all!
My question concerns placing/attaching corals in the tank. If I order, either on line or from the LFS, corals such as brain, colt, toadstool, button polyps, mushrooms, how will they be packaged? Will they be loose in bags, or attached to live rock rubble? Also, how do you place them in your tank so they will stay where put? I've heard of using glue or epoxy, but do I put this on the coral, or on my existing rock, or on rubble? And finally, do the corals have to remain in water all the time, or can they be out briefly while attaching them?
Thanks in advance!
