Re: Charity ExoTerra Viv
First I plane down the back of corkbark with a tablesaw to get a good gluing surface. I have experimented with a few differant glues over the years and most break down over time so I use Liquid Nails Small Projects. I hold the bark in place on the back of the tank and circle the good gluing sites with a sharpie marker from the other side of the glass. I then put the tank on its back put the glue in place and place the wood on top and let gravity hold them in place.
I make sure to space the wood so I can get at least an inch or so of sphagnum between each of the pieces and also between the pieces and the side walls as well as the top of the tank.
