Where to get glue?

where to get the superglue for the sps?

[houndster]

Oh and what is the brand and price? anyone know??

[williammuk]

Just any DIY HomeFix shop should carry it. Look specifically for super glue gel. It has to be the gel type.

Got different brands eg. 3M. About $2+ or $3+ a small tube -- same size as the regular super glue tube.

Yup. And the name is Loctite. Cost abt $3+

thanks.. can i glue it in saltwater..

[williammuk]

Yes, squeeze it under water also can. But I suggest you practice doing so on a piece of rock to observe the process before actually trying it on your precious coral frags.

Note that the moment it touches water, it will skin over very quickly. So you should use lots of glue liberally to ensure proper contact between the rock and frag.

Hope this helps.

No offence ... but the thing I discovered the hard way recently is that the epoxy putty I used will make the skimmer overflow with bubbles of clear water thus causing the skimmate in the collection cup to be returned into the tank.

It took more than two days before the skimmer returned back to normal.

The brand I was using is Devcon Magic Bond Epoxy. I read on RC that some other brands also has the same effect. I'm not sure about Selleys.

Yes, gel type correct. Good luck.
