I got a frag at a swap a few weeks back that seems to have come unattached. It is maybe 4-5 really nice polyps with 2 other polyps, and they all seems to be attached together. There is nothing on the bottom that I could glue to, or anything like that.

What should I do? My thinking is make some sort of rock structure I can set them into so they won't blow away? They are healthy and opening, but not attached to anything at all from what i can see....
 
You can stick them in a cup of small rubble and wait until they attach.

I have had success with glueing the polyp directly to a rock. Use SMALL amounts on the base only.
 
I can't really find the base or I would... they seem so be growing 360deg!
 
Tie the frag with fishing line to a small piece of rock. In about a week or two it should attach to the rock.
