Are there any adhesives out there that you can use underwater that will not be poisonous to my tank? I have a frag that I want to glue in my DT.

Super glue, super glue gel --- theres a two part epoxy (make sure it says aquarium safe if you don't get a fish brand name).
For your superglue make sure the ingredient is cyanaocrylate.
Do not use stuff like gorilla glue, etc.
I picked up super glue gel at Lowes for like 1.87 -- and I've heard other places have aquarium safe two part epoxy but I have the two little fishies brand or something.

Yeah that's the epoxy... I thought I had the two little fishies stuff like that but the stuff I have is similiar... has a green ring around hte white, I just cut a cross section out... mix it until it's all white and apply -- works really well but doesn't like to stick that well to live rock and you kind of have to work it in.... but once it sticks/holds its works great.

Yes. Just put a glob on the frag and push it against the desired rock. Twist it a bit to break the film that the water created and it should stick fairly quickly.
