trying to stick my frags on the rock
trying to stick my frags on the rock
gloves....why do i never wear glovesThe absolute best way to glue coral to rock work is to use super glue gel. Use a disposable glove and put a small blob of super glue gel on your finger tip. Then reach into the tank using your fingertip with the gel and press/rub it into the rock work. It will turn white. Next place a blob of super glue gel on the frag you want to secure and press it into the glue you just rubbed into the rock. Hold it in place for a couple of seconds, the attachment is almost instant.
Agree, only thing I do different is I only use one finger of the glove on my forefinger, so I don't drip all the water around the wrist.The absolute best way to glue coral to rock work is to use super glue gel.

Any issues with the big bottles drying out? I'd hate to spend $30 and end up with a paper weightMy preferred brand is BSI (Bob Smith Industries)
But really youre looking for
- "Cyanoacrylate": reef safe glue that cures with moisture
- "Gel": because non-gel versions can be runny and difficult to work with
