I have seen displays where the owners have placed montiporas on their overflows. How are these guys doing this?

thats what i want chris, the only problem is mine has out grown the plug. I can use a lot of puddy on the plug so that i can make a flat surface to glue to the overflow.

was your overflow dry when you did it? and i should scrap off the coraline.

ok bare with me. yes scrape of coraline, then make a ball of epoxy lil super glue on plug and squish epoxy on glue on plug. then more glue on epoxy and quickly smash it on spot on overflow and hold a min or two.
