Feeling Froggy!!!!!!

So I finally purchased my favorite coral,the frogspawn. Gave her a coral dip in revive and all was good. Glued her to a rock with super glue and 4 hours later I found her on the sand via my mexican turbo snails big ass!
What is the best way to mount corals permanently?
Don't want to stress it any more than the Mexican did with making her face plant cross the border!

Aquarium safe epoxy putty does a pretty good job.

You can buy it at a local fish store, usually. If not, you can find it online.

I'll have to get some of that. I have a couple pretty big mexican turbos and they tend to know things around.

Epoxy putty hardens like rock. It won't move after you have stuck it on and it chemically hardens.

Well then I better know exactly where I want my frags,so I dont have to chizzle them off later

She seems happy in the sand. Probably move her up higher once I get some putty.

Ladies and gentlemen! !!! Apparently I was sold a hammer coral even though I asked for a frogspawn and was told that's what it was. I guess I should have done better research. LFS don't know everything. Lesson learned.

I was going to say that. I have both a hammer and a frogspawn frag in my tank and that is definitely a hammer.
