Good morning everyone, hope all is well. I have a question regarding the best technique used to glue frags on my aquascape. I currently use bsi coral glue but, I feel that the must b a better way to glue my frags. Last night I glued some frags to my rock only to find it on the sand bed. The method I use is, first I put glue on the plug, then dip it in the water so I get the skin to form and lastly put on rock will twisting it so there can be good adhesion. I then hold it there to make sure it sticks and in my opinion that should be it, right? Well this morning two of the three frags were on the floor. So can anyone tell me what works for them and the steps they take , hopefully I can try a new way and not worry if the plugs end up on the sand bed . Thanks for the input and happy reefing!
 
I out a small piece of epoxy on live rock, a small piece of frag and then I put some coral glue on frag and then install . I will use cut off base column of frag mount if I want to place on flat surface . I also drill holes in my live rock The same size as frag so i can just insert with no glue
 
Gorilla glue gel
Put on a drop, hold for 60 seconds, done!
