Re: Stupid epoxy

Nope it didn't. Made a big mess and didn't set underwater. Then my tang started eating it. Don't think I want my fish eating superglue. So, on to Plan B: now I'll try the Aquastik that my LFS carried...

Re: Stupid epoxy

you don't have to use a lot of loctite glue to attache a frag just a little. buy more than one tube you're gonna need it.
