krazy glue

Can i use the crazy glue gel in my tank to place frags???

Yes, just make a small drop of gel and when the water hits is it forms a skin then just push the 2 pieces together to break the skin and tada..

i typically use a combo to get the job done.

I prefer to use putty myself

I've NEVER been able to get putty to work properly. I mend it and mend it until my fingers turn purple and it never works for me.

Ah, so it's user error on my end then. Sounds right. I'd always mend it and then when it changed colors, insert the coral into epoxy and attempt to stick in it's desired location.

Huh. I'll give that a try next time. Thanks!

I use the glue sandwich method with the epoxy to get it to stick, and its easy to pop off if you want to reposition.

+1 Yep, me too! I make up a small ball of epoxy and put a dab of super glue on both the end of the coral epoxy. I have gotten the best results this way.
