so i totally forgot about my decorator spider and last night it did a bit of tripping on my new blue hornets. Only snipped one polyp off and a hunk of rock with 2 very small polyps on it, but not the polyps themselves
everything is fine and out, or so it seems, in the substrate, i went looking for glue yesterday and they wanted 20 bucks for this super tiny bottle, is there any glue around the house that would be safe for the corals/tank?
ie-elmers white glue, crazy glue, wood glue?

Do not use any of the glues you mentioned....simply go to Dollar store and buy super glue gel.....

ha thanks, i should start paying for these answers :p
do i need to take it out of the water? i was going to for the zoas, but one of my crabs just knocked one of my frogspawn stalks off some rock and the rock is positioned perfectly with other rocks on it to make a cave, so if i have to take it out i will, which i assume i will have to, but id prefer to leave it

You need to dry the base as best you can...
also some coral Should not be taken out...Zoas can though...not sure what the rules are on the frogspawn though....you could hold the spawn under and just expose the base enough to pat it dry...you really don't want glue floating around in your tank
