Hey any guys in Macon have any epoxy on hand, Im about to ride to Macon Pets to see if they have any but Im not very optimistic about that hehe. If you have some and could spare it please text to 478-258-7089.

Thanks,
Dale
 
Like for rocks/corals? Home Depot or Lowes. Get some under-water epoxy (2 part clay basically) and then some superglue gel. Mash up a bit of the epoxy & put superglue on each side of it, then frags to rocks.
 
Lol dang didn't even consider that, I generally have to write petsmart off cause ours has almost nothing when it comes to saltwater

The superglue won't set up the second u stick it in water? Or do I need to pull the rock out of water?
 
they should have a tiny saltwater section that is maybe 2 feet of one aisle with some saltwater items. nothing fancy but mine does have epoxy

If you use superglue gel and put a generous pile of it, only the outside of the pile will dry then mashes out fresh glue when you stick it to the rock.Pretty much any two part stick epoxy will work but i quit using it makes my skimmer go crazy.

Edit: so yes superglue can be used underwater

Edit: the gel type

You can't like put the tube of superglue underwater or anything, but what I do is exactly as described.

I'll pull the frag out, mush up some epoxy, put a dab of superglue gel on each side of the epoxy. Mash one side onto the frag & then put the frag in the tank and mash it to a rock. Works like a charm.
 
Went to LFS and they were selling a stick for 15, decided to wait and went to petsmart and got the same stick for $6. Talk about a markup.
