I bought limpets yesterday and I'm about ready to superglue two of them down. Two latch on the rock and have been fine I've picked the other two about 20 times each and placed them back upright.

Any creative ideas to help them stick?

Thanks friends.
 
You are going to superglue limpets? They'd be too slimy lol
Limpets can land either side, in the wild the wave action would normally just right them up eventually because they prefer areas with strong waves. You definitely have to keep an eye on them when you first add them (a bit too late for that though, given its been 9 days).

Darn, they would be too slimy. :p

They all finally latched down and are happy.

Thanks friend
