The CB I have is usually the one coral that commented on when I show pics to people
Here is a better shot of one. Had a few mins to get a pic, glass is dirty though. This is a SBB Big League Chewberry.

I think this one is also a stunner. They all are to be honest.

Ooooo. That is a really pretty shot. Have you had good success with the Coral Beauty so far? I hear they are Coral Munchers vs. beauties.
Tarja has been in there since day 1, almost 3 years ago. I haven't had any issues with her. I do feed my tanks heavily though

Sand and super glue is how i built all my structures. Broke them apart with hammers and built it all up how i wanted. Pour a little super glue on the joint, pour sand over it and then do a second round of glue/sand and its hard as mortar. You can add real mortar on top if you want too once its dried and holding shape
So super glue worked fine for you to hold rocks together? I think sanding in this situation would be a bad idea because the break is very clean and perfectly aligns when held together. If anything, the zigs and zags on the break line add more surface area for the super glue to adhere to. I'll give it a try while I pass the time until midnight....

If it matches up that well I think a lot of super glue would hold it fine.

Why the apostrophes..
Street Style ya boomer.

Haha, just kidding, I think we are the same age. I think it is part of the "tagging" style though, it shows that whatever letters they put together are meant to be spelled incorrectly since most of the taggers probably didn't finish primary school. Maybe you had to grow up in the mean streets to see this more frequently.

So I got my Caribsea Rock in and luckily only one rock was broken. I was thinking I could just use a whole bottle of super glue gel to repair it before I use it. What have y’all used to adhere rocks together best?

Luckily, it’s a very clean break that connects perfectly, so there’s a lot of surface area in the joint. You can kind of see the line under my pointing finger.

Use epoxy. It covers over pretty quickly. Or use the new product Seatak. It works great for dry applications but i couldnt get it to adhere under water.
