I just picked up some really cool pieces of dried coral ( thanks again meanfish). I spent a couple hours dry fitting the pieces with my Marco rock, some live tonga branch, etc. I have what I think is gong to be an incredible (JMHO) aquascape. I was blown away by how nice it came out. Now I have a few things to set up before I start mounting the dried corals, etc, and putting it in the tank to "re-cycle". I will FW soak, and dry them, the usual prep for tank deco's.
I was looking around the net last night getting some info on aquascape, epoxy's and stuff and came across info on using dried corals in your tank. They said it is a really bad idea as they are "tough to keep clean, and need a lot of maintenance". I have seen dried corals used in some outstanding display tanks and they purple up, etc. It seems like a good idea.....anyone have reasons why it's not?
Thanks
BTW> this is a FOWLR tank
