* Pocillopora damicornis
i show mounting all these frags using super glue gel, using both vertical and horizontal mounting techniques.

You ain't kidding.....

I've been waiting most of the day for it to finish. I'm getting ready to start watching now.

Good idea, thanks Rob.

How do guys like Diggnation and Cranky Geeks handle compression? they are putting out hour long shows in .m4v format that are in the low 100mbs. This is a slow download, but I am excited to get to listen to it!

As far as video ideas I have a few that always perplex me:

Secrets for restarting an overflow box after cleaning it.

Dis-assembling and cleaning a maxi-jet

Basics of DIY Metal Halide hoods.

Hope that helps!

Excellent show Rob! I didn't know about the drops of water speeding the setting of the gel. Great tip!

yep.. water sets it off, this is a good thing and a bad thing..
if you do not dry the surfaces off, the water will cause the glue to start to set as soon as you apply it. this is not always a problem, but if you are slow, then it may not allow for a secure mount

Just curious if you have any updated pictures or anything of the corals that you fragged in the video. Could be interesting to see how they've grown over time.

Oh well, I figured that might have been the case. Just thought I'd ask. :up:
