Epoxy

[woyeng**]

Just bought my first few soft corals and applied epoxy to give them a firmer grip on the LR with epoxy.

After applying epoxy, my tank suddenly turned cloudy... Any issues ?

[Endorrachua]

it will goes off after a while. don worry. btw are u using those bought from lfs and aquariu m safe type?

[alexcyf]

It gets better when u use eproxy more. U will learn to how to minimize adjustments in e water n thus reduce e Amount of eproxy dissolved into e water. Anyway, think Skimmers help to clear them too.

I only use bsi or ecotech glue. Epoxy like dd all need time and abit slower to apply

But for coral with slightly heavier base rock have to use epoxy. Anyway I suck at epoxy never stick well for me. Maybe my skill no good. Sigh.

Got to roll the epoxy up and apply quickly before hardens...n they harden fast too

Ya.. Epoxy skills not there... Hope some of the corals grow out of the epoxy cover in case i eye !!

[brojj]

I use both, depending on situations, i will choose either one. Epoxy more for bigger applications or where stronger bond is required. Epoxy the more u use, the better u will become.

Epoxy certainly gives a very strong bonding.

After applying yesterday, I couldn't move them anymore today

[liquidnoise]

Using BSi, coral glue and Epoxy. SO far all the coral can be plucked out from the frag. Glue or gel type find it very messy and hard to stick firmly for placement before hardens

[DottyClown]

I think BSI gel is good. What I do is, when putting the frag onto the LR, apply a little pressure and I give the frag a little twist. This will help spread the gel at the contact point between frag and LR, giving a firmer hold. Hope that works for you.

Any ideas where i can get BSi Glue in the west side? I went down to Madpetz today and totally 4gotten to buy e glue. It's troublesome to go back to sin ming while i stayed in Jurong

[Evolutionz]

Can try calling Henry and ask if he carries it.

[John Deroe Kenedy]

Already called Henry, he doesnt have it. Maybe will try vincent
