Hello Little project that i been using thought i would share.
I used some CaribSea Life Rock Branch Rock. They usually come in 3 branch design so you can get at lest two out of each piece. Then i glue and epoxy 3 inch frag plugs on the tops and base. I break the pieces so depending how they break you get single pedestals or double or triple.

You could make a really cool euphyllia tree out of one of those or get 1 that reaches out a little further and make a really cool actopora tree. I like it :D

Great idea. Wonder if it would work gluing them to the back wall of a DT so they would be protruding out into the tank. Hmm. . . .

You could coat the PVC pipe with a thin smear of superglue and sprinkle with sand, coral bits, etc. so it would blend in a bit better and quicker encrusting would occur.
