Hi All, I wanted to know what type of glue do people use to attach corals ( shrooms, mini leather) to LR? Thanks

some ppl use crazy glue, i use coral epoxy, netting, rubberbands, tooth pic.

Glue usually doesn't work well on softies. You usually do best with a needle and thread or a toothpick and rubberbands. For hard corals, I usually use super glue gel.

Use any glue that's main ingredient is Cyanoacrylate. Pretty much all the "super" or "crazy" glues are good...get the gel kind. Much easier to work with.

Super glues works fine in water, fresh or salt

Since I'm just now getting into this... how do you go about placing "softies" with toothpicks, needle/thread, and netting? I'm claiming BLONDENESS today...
I bought two little ricordias yesterday, and each was on a little clump of rocky stuff, so I just stuck them in the bottom of my tank near my LR. Is this ok, or do I need to attach them in a more permanent way?
Thanks,
