+1 This is my method of choice, after I've exhausted the other methods (scraping, peeling, etc).

Where do you find this reef epoxy? Any LFS carry it? I tried peeling it off the other night and that was useless. I'd have to rip apart my aquascaping to get the LR out as its covering a couple of rocks - some of them quite large, so this may be the easiest.

I don't know how you guys do it. I got two good sized chunks from Coralgurl last year and now they are only slightly larger than when I got them.

Mine has just gone crazy in the last few months and growing like mad. My tank conditions haven't been stellar for a long time now, but I am working to change that. May be the GSP likes the conditions, so will be interesting to see if things change in the next while. If you want more, I'll definitely be able to give you some. Just be careful what you wish for.....

Haha, I'm striving for diversity now so I can find something that takes off in my tank. I have an unknown purple-polyp that came with my live rock, some blue-green polyps, a wavy blueish polyp, star polyps, and of course the GSP. So far none are exactly exploding, the star polyps held their ground pretty well but have lately started receding.

Go to concepts and ask for some vertex epoxy. Tell them Keener sent you..
