Wishing I had drilled and used some rods .,.. but hoping this will hold. D2 Putty and superglue ... seems pretty solid and the rocks were a good fit, just not as much adhesion space as I would have liked.

Now the rock has been power washed and out in the sun for a few days, I'll soak in RO for a day or two then put in my old nano to seed for a while before transferring. I now have a good idea of scape so hopefully it will come together in a couple of weeks time.

Haha awesome. I am tempted to do this with corals ... some GSP for the body, a gorg for the tongue and maybe an acan polyp for the eye.

You could always try araldite. I realized recently that using superglue is entirely redundant as the majority of them are not waterproof. I keep losing frags off tiles as the glue gives when I'm not around, and the various kneadable putties reach a point of no longer working- or never working in the first place.

@Buddy - It looks like he is trying to recreate the Loch Ness monster :p

Not totally happy with it yet, trying to envisage how it will look with the planned corals in there.

But no more rock going in I don't think.

Anyone with an eye for this got any tips?
