Papermache? Hehehe. I tried to peg my rocks, but ran out of patience, so mine are zip tied. You must have a lot more patience than me.
The other trick that i've read in another forum is use a black pancake spatula. This might be a little easter specially if you have some room behind the coral you wanted to take pictures of.

patience me, nope. but am not happy ether if I don't get what I want.
