I used this epoxy the first time around. It's really strong stuff when cured, but I highly recommend you use it outside of your DT. If you handle it in the DT, it will cover everything with a messy residue. I could clean it from glass and such, but it stuck badly to the skimmer cup and stained the socks. It needs to cure in warm water, so it's a bit of a pain to use
Last night I used this glue. It's much nicer to work with but nowhere near as strong. Although it may seem expensive, it's actually much cheaper than the $6-7 75ml tubes of loctite

Thought I'd share some angled shots to show all the coral mounting locations and the dual swim-throughs

Hey Greg it was nice meeting you yesterday and seeing your clinical set up, very pristine.... Also redundancy redundancy redundancy!!

The montis we traded are lime green montipora capricromis, red cap, and green cap with blue polyps which is alittle colored down ATM but will definitely colour up with the Ati blasting them!
