    Mine has covered almost a foot of the back wall of my tank. I jumped from the top of
    the rock it started on tothe glass. Best part about it is its really easy to peel it off the
    glass

    This picture was from August, I will try and get a more current one tonight.

    I've got a mag disc on my back wall, with a sunset monti on it. It's almost encrusting the wall now.

    I got sps Frags glued to my acrylic overflow. And they they are already encrusting on it(bout 2 months). I think glass might be a little more tricky then say a plastic but it can be done. A friend of mind found that if you do a combination of epoxy and then glue it make a pretty good bond.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    GSP, has covered almost my entire back wall (28 gal). I need to cut it back because it grows over the spill gate and on the outputs. I used super glue to place it, been over a year. I will try to get an image of it. It is already growing around the corners to the glass sides, if it was not easy to peel it off I would be kicking my self big time.

    I tried monti but I kept breaking the pieces off.
