Newbie questions and concerns about coral care

Post by flicker3 »

I was attaching some frags and decided to use super glue, made sure it had cyanoacrylate in it before I bought it. Got home, applied it, and aaaaaaaand, it was liquid, not gel, so it spread everywhere. I managed to get a lot of it off one of the frags, but some still remains, and I'm worried it might be ruined now.

Been there, done that, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

The frag itself might still be okay, but those areas with glue are probably a lost cause.

Don't stress about it, the frag will likely survive.

Pretty much what I figured, might as well just cut that part off and hope the rest of it pulls through.

If that's the color of all the rock in your tank, it's not sps-ready anyway.

Misread your post, my bad. So yeah, it's all dry rock, just put it in. Got an 8x8x4 ceramic block in the sump, should handle the bio. The tank itself has been up for about six months with the block.
