I recently put more glue on my sps coral and as I put it back in the water, a part of the glue came off and was floating in the water. One of the fish ate it and it got stuck on the outside of its mouth. I had to catch it. While trying to catch the Fish, the fish shook off the glue from it's mouth and was able to eat again. Will anything bad happen??? Thanks
 
Any tips on how to out glue next time? Just so I lower the risk of fish eating it again.
 
Try keeping your fish net handy. It comes off at the surface when it gets wet, so you can dip the coral into the water and scoop the glue out with the other hand.
 
Take some tank water in a bowl and dip the coral in it before putting back in the tank so if some does come off it's in the bowl not the tank.
