Warning : Product

[sorgan]

Stanly to score then use the scissors to strip, blunt will be fine. Just be carfull not to cut yourself.

Lewiss turn them upside down (so the dead bits are down) and glue them to something, if your lucky they will re-encrust.
Sure the sponge will be fine, air bubbles are the biggest concern with them

All other coral were unaffected, they sulked for a few days but that its. The Kenya just shriveled up an died within days.

At least the tank would smell nice (assuming you mean chewing gum haha)

and super glue do you mean normal super glue? or an aquatic one?

just normal supper glue. Its reef safe.

 

[StandbySetting]

A standard Cyanocrylate super glue is aquarium safe.

I never would have thought that!

yep once its dry it becomes inert, but i think you still need to use a certain type of superglue, forgot which

 

[ALW]

"Cyanoacrylate glue's ability to resist water has made it popular with marine aquarium hobbyists for fragging corals. The cut branches of hard corals such as Acropora can be glued to a piece of live rock (harvested reef coral) or Milliput (epoxy putty) to allow the new frag to grow out. In fact, it is actually safe to use directly in the tank, unlike silicone, which must be cured to be safe. However, as a class of adhesives, traditional cyanoacrylates are classified as having weak resistance to both moisture and heat although the inclusion of phthalic anhydride reportedly counteracts both of these characteristics".

does that mean when it is still wet it can go in the water or am I being dim?

It cures instantly on contact with water, which is why it is used in hospitals for gluing large cuts together.
