How do i attach my zoas?

[d2mini]

I bought a small frag of about 5-7 polyps and it came on a plug. When i got home it had separated from the plug. So i found a bit of a recess in my live rock and just placed it there. It's been there for about a month and I figured it had attached itself by now. Well yesterday i found it on the sand. I put it back and today I came home to find the same thing. So what gives??? How can i get this guy to stay put? :12:

I would use superglue. Just be careful not to get any on the top of the polyps. Dab a lil superglue on the base then stick them on a rock. I have done this in the past and it worked well.

Superglue works great.

Cool. So it dries underwater, eh?

Maybe I should have Biff come over and do it for me.
I hears she's a pro with the superglue. >|<

Super glue gel works alot better and is easier to control without getting any on the frag. Yes it cures under water. Gluing works best if you take the frag out of the water and the rock it's going on tab both a few times with a towel glue wait a few seconds and put it back in the tank.


Note this wont work with some softies as they shrink or slime they loosen them selves from it.

Be very careful when you work with zoas. Wear gloves and goggles.

I still have that crap on my fingernails. I'm afraid the only way it'll come off of my nails is if I just let them grow out.
