How to glue underwater

[drdude05]

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to glue sps frags to LR underwater? I have a few that I would like to attach on rocks that I cannot remove from the tank. Is there a specific type of glue or technique that I should try?

super glue gel- put a glob down where you want making sure to get some in some holes or nooks and crannies. then hold the frag where you want it for 30 seconds

for larger frags use aquamend. after mixing push your wad down into holes and nooks and cranies...then put your frag in the wad and push the ep[oxy up around the frag.

Both methods work, and both methods are fairly easy...or at least easy once you figure out how to do it. takes some practice, especially with the epoxy although once you figure it out you can hold anything of any size pretty much. with the epoxy you may need to prop the frag/coral up after getting where you want to give the epoxy time to set. For underwater applications I like the loc-tite brand two part ep[oxy. it sets way faster than aquamend...costs twice as much though too

BTW, if you use the epoxy you might want to turn off your skimmer for a while because it might overflow.
