local only....
I prefer acrylic or fired ceramic plugs so I don't have to soak them before using them....but anything will do.
Watcha got?

I've been wanting to try the coralline color epoxy...that's cool.

The thick gel works great. This epoxy is too new for us but it should work just like the others just a different color than green or gray.

I prefer the coraline epoxy. It looks like a natural color in the tank and is the closest match to your coraline algae. Most importantly, it does not make your skimmer go crazy.

I noticed that too, Roy. Must be a different formulation.

Ed (EdAquatics) gave me a magazine that had this very cool and interesting article. I dug it up online.
If ever I get a system where I can start fragging, this what I will do. Next system I do purchase though I will make sure I do drill the rocks so I can start putting frags I purchase on acrylic rods and placing them in the tank.

Yes, I love that article. Was talking to Jeremy about it this past weekend. He was stating the concept behind the rods is perfect for SPS so that no algae clogs the plugs preventing the SPS from encrusting.
