Recommendations on Gluing Frag Pucks

[MrTang13]

So I have quite a few frags that keep falling over in my tank. I’d like to glue them down, and previously have used this thick clay with success.

The problem is that the clay is very visible, looks horrible, and if the frag dies, I have either a puck or a pump of clay stuck to my Rockwork.

Are there any glues that are strong enough to keep the frag in place, but if it’s doesnt work out I could still pop the frag off the rock?

I’m hoping something with a clear glue that isn’t noticeable. Not sure if this exists..

You can use super glue

 

[MrTang13]

Which brand? Is it noticeable if I remove the frag later?

I’m also worried that removing the frag will cause the rock to break.

I worry about everything with this reef...

make sure its 100% cyanoaculate or however you spell it. also the gel works better. BRS carries some and you can buy it in a bottle and the price if great compared to all the little 0.2 oz tubes you buy at walmart.

Super glue gel. Make sure it is the gel, or else it will not work. Commonly called cyanoacrylate gel. You can buy it from the dollar store for dirt cheap.

+1 on Dollar Tree GEL super glue.

But keep in mind that it doesn't set clear. It will be opaque white until it gets covered with coralline algae.

Good luck trying to find something crystal clear

Not that I know of.
Your best bet would probably be the purple color 2 part epoxy if you want something that kinda blends in.
