Hi Fellow Reefers,
I would like to share my experience using the above product. I am in no way affiliated with FM or the shop that sells FM products but just wanted to share with rest of you.

I am currently setting up a 40gallon tank and decided to go with ceramic reef rocks. Since my new rocks are almost white in color, i needed an epoxy that blends with the rock. Thats when FM Aquascape Fix caught my eye.

In my current setup, i used Oceans Wonders Coralline Purple Reef epoxy for rockscaping and TLF CorAffix for attaching the corals and a Taiwan brand coral glue as well.

The epoxy worked well for the rock but the coral glue really caused a mess on the finger if i am not careful.

Anywhere here's how the FM Aquascape Fix looks like

Followed the instructions, poured warm water about 40 deg C.

It was abit difficult to knead and did not get the transparent look . So decided to add more water but slightly hotter. Then...

I waited a while for the water to cool and you will be able to pull out what you need and rockscape. it cures in air in about 10-15 mins and quickly in cold water. As the warm water cools, the "gel" becomes thicker

Their claims:

1) leaves no sticky hands and residue - correct

2) reusable when exposed to hot water - correct

i also feel its economical in long rum. Used 1/3 of the 250ml container for my rockscape

Have fun!
