It was already mounted to a small rock. I use epoxy and superglue to mount the coral. I take a piece of mixed up epoxy and put a dab of superglue on the coral side, push the coral in (or in this case, the rock it came on) then I put a dab of superglue on the bottom side of the epoxy and mount it in the tank. The combination of superglue and epoxy is very effective.
