Jeramy Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I have a frag of blue zoas that is attached to some small bits of rubble. Probably about 25 heads or so. My emerald crab oscar, keeps dragging them off my rock work befor they have a chance to attatch themselves in place. I am looking for something safe to use directly in my tank as the rock I want them attached to cant be taken out cause its one of the foundation pieces of the rock work. Looking to get some suggestions and feed back as to what to use and where to buy it. Thanks and Have a Nice Day =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbird Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Bulk Reef Supply sells several varietys for about $7. I have also seen it at many local shops although I don't remember how much it costs. All of it is good to use under water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hewey McLovit Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I've used 3 different glues and BSI IC-gel is hands down the best. The saltwater helps it activate and can adhere in 30 secs-ish. Saltwater Fantaseas has always had it in stock when i go in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danik Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I use the underwater epoxy that home depot sells for $5. Worked great for me for years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I use the underwater epoxy that home depot sells for $5. Worked great for me for years now. Yep, aquamend. Works great. It will make your skimmer go nuts for an hour or so though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islandoftiki Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I've been using home depot under water 5 minute epoxy with super glue gel for all of my frag placements. Put some super glue gel on the bottom of your frag, press the putty into that, then put some super glue gel on the epoxy where it's going to attach to the rock. Put your frag where you want it in your tank and press it in place. After 5 minutes, it isn't going anywhere without a screwdriver to pry it back off. Bonus: if you do need to pry it off, it rarely leaves any residue behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
