Can you put them in a strawberry basket with suction feet attatched at the top of you tank's glass? Cover the bottom of the basket with small rubble and check on them every few days and the ones that attatch you can superglue to your rock.
I just bought some from reef-gardener in Coral Gabels, FL. They are attatched and always great ricordias. She is fishaffair here on RC. Sends a list of stock at specials from time to time. Some rocks with a dozen polyps and more. She gets some of the most colorful, large rics I have seen. Pretty much 80% of my FL rics I have gotten from her. This last list is awesome.

Here are some I just ordered and should be getting Tue fedex.

I use a plastic butter tub or coolwhip tub filled with coarse arogonite for my mushroom "pizza slices" during propagation. I place them in the tub, cover it with Tulle (wedding veil type stuff from a craft store) and wait about a month. I then take them out and super glue them to baseball size rubble for trade/display. You do need to keep them out of strong current for at least another month because they still won't be firmly attached and one might fall off, but the process is pretty straigh forward.

Yes, I just happen to like them at the top so I can watch them closer, but I have a shaded spot. Anyplace should be fine.
Thanks for the coment on the rics.
