Good advice Larry! Another aquarium hobbyist closer up island! Welcome.I find securing corals are a special talent that require patience. Most corals will come on some sort of rock base already, wedging it between your rockwork is one means of securing them, epoxy and gel type glue will work for smaller pieces. Avoid aiming the tunze at the corals until the glue sets, and then consider a wavemaker. Securing corals is an art, it allows the coral to set and grow properly unlike a loose coral that continues to rock back and forth and possibly fall over and always continue to be reposition, allowing a coral to be stressed.
