• Coral glue

  • Jennifer7159

Today I tried this and was disappointed. The task is simple: there is a stone with coral that needs to be glued underwater to a rock (in the aquarium). Naturally, I searched and read about it. I bought Epoxilin. I cut off a piece, kneaded it well until it was homogeneous and soft like plasticine. I dried the stone with coral with a napkin. I started attaching the Epoxilin to the stone, but the glue didn't really want to stick to it. I managed to apply it to the stone, and as I lowered it into the aquarium, I began to attach it to the rock, but the Epoxilin crumbled and created dust! With horror, I pulled this mess out of the aquarium. So the question is: how to glue stones and corals underwater? Thank you.

Here is the glue, we have already talked a lot about it: apply it thickly to the bottom of the stone with the coral and press it firmly underwater in the right place against the rock J.K. (live stones) and hold it for 1 minute. All my corals stick to it.

I used this glue, though only once, for fragging zoanthids. It worked. For stones, as I understand, they use epoxy-based ones like Aquamedic, Tunze, etc. Tomorrow I will try your suggestion.

Would this "Moment" work?

Paul

No. This is only for PVC. The putty (Moment) needs to be first attached to the frag, and then to the live rock. Yes, it creates a bit of dust, but nothing bad happens because of it. Press it on all sides to the frag and the live rock.

Actually, I glue PVC differently. It seems that's how I did it.

I do too, but for regular gluing many people use it. It is NOT SUITABLE for fragmenting.
