Hello everyone. Has anyone had some of their zoanthid main bodies(I don't know what you would call it) pull off of their rock? How do I safely reattach it? I was thinking of removing the three I saw coming off and glued them to another rock. But it seems that my mustard seed of a glue drop was enough to spread and clog up one of the three pieces from opening. Please forgive the poor photos. How can I reattach the one that is now about to float away? Has anyone used something as small as a tooth pick or something to dab a bit of glue under one?

I use the Loctite super glue gel. Comes in a little pump like container. You can dispense very small amounts and be very precise with it.
 
Edit. I think what happens is my turbo snails are so big and heavy that when they comb over the rock they may disrupt the corals grip on the rock. I hope this isn't the case as I wouldn't have corals at all with snails.
 
Yes. Turbos are bulldozers. I prefer astria and tiger trochus snails.
