Default Best Reef Epoxy

Hey,
Im just asking around to see which epoxy for attaching frags/liverock in a reef aquarium.

I currently use the D&D brand epoxy, but it find it extremely pink in colour, is this just me or is that how it is?

thanks!!

It's really pink as far as I can see it. If it is just the color that throws you off it will get encrusted eventually.

yep thats the one - everyone on nano-reef uses it.

your skimmer will go nuts when you first put it in the tank so keep an eye on it.
