Don't worry. The official distributor for Fauna Marin in Singapore has ordered them in. Estimated retail pricing will be around $35-$40 sgd. You can get those construction expanding foam locally but those usually come in colors which are either pale green/beige and will be an eyesore for reef application if not covered properly.

Always something more important than fish.

Will be waiting for this... But 38 liter of foam is very difficult to visualise.. LOL..

1 question.... Does it cure rock hard (like concrete) or is it like styrofom?.....

Thinking of using this to cover overflow (an eyesore in the middle) do not like the idea of putting rocks leaning on it.....

i was wondering can we make a hole with say a penknife/screwdriver and stuff in corals (like styrofoam) once cured?

Yes you can.

Here's how Fauna Marin Reef Scape foam looks like when it is sprayed out of the can. Used here in a terrarium project to seal the gaps between the tank walls and the false bottom.

Tried this today. Awesome stuff. Normal cheap expanding foam used in the construction industry takes 12-24 hours to cure. Fauna Marin's Reef Scape foam fully hardened before 2 hours was up. Especially for people who wish to use this product to bond liverocks together. Your liverock will not become dried rock.
