remounted acan

[Ironman]

well I finally decided if I wanted my big acan to grow anymore i would have to mount it. So I bought the perfect rock at capacino bay and just got done dremeling the base so it would just fit the rock, it also took alot of glue to make a smooth transition to the new rock. heres a couple pics

Sweet. Is that glue all super glue gel? That must be three tubes or more.

No kidding! I hope you bought stock in super glue gel before purchasing all that glue!! Looks good man. That should start to plate out nicely! Funny though, I can't tell where you cut my frag from???? j/k ! It doesn't look like you had to cut it much at all. That's great. Less stress on the coral. Good job!

Sorry guys, I thought id have to cut it to, but I didnt have to cut any polyps. but it should grow fast now so frags will be coming soon.
It took about 1oz of gel glue. but it was worth it.

1 oz!!! Wow!! The tubes I buy are only .14oz. That was a lot of glue. Like I said Hope you bought stock in glue before hand!! Great job!

I buy the 2oz bottles, and the new one I used is half empty. its not to bad. a bottle is only $10 so it cost me a total of $20 to put it on the rock!
