very simple...

when you glue a rock of coral onto another rock out of your tank.. once you've applied the superglue / gel and stick them together, dip them into a container of your tank water.. this helps the glue to harden up fast...

Bro, super glue gel is different from super glue, make you got the right one if not the watery super glue will make a big mess. Gel type is preferred cos it will not "run" or flow all over the coral when you are sticking.

i guess i use the top brand instead ba safer haha thanks ^^

Just 2 examples. It is superglue, but in gel form. It will be written on the packaging.

My 1.5ft nano cube

My 24G nano tank (Decommed)

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate.

And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.

my rics detached when i use the supergel 1-2 weeks when i want to shift it's location.

i think letting it stick on rocks/coral chips will be better haha

my observation

cause this yuma the previous owner use super glue already and i have no idea how to attach the yuma to rocks
