    IMO there in no "Reef Safe" epoxies, or glues. but in small amounts and with a water change it'll be fine. gosh this stuff doesnt wanna come off though LOL

    Congrats on the coral. :) I remember when I got my Frag of Red People Eaters. Had about 7 or 8 heads, I felt like being a nerd and fragging it right off the bat! Few months later I have probalby 25-30 :)

    Just take a pair of side cutters and cut the shaft off the bottom of the plug leaving the disc with frag on top. This makes it easier to glue down and the polyps will cover the disc in no time.8)
