Well... was fragging about 20ish frags last night when I reached for the superglue drawer and realized, I had half a tube of it left and that’s it!

Fortunately I had some putty so I made it work out. Just ashamed of my lack of superglue organization and stocking skills.

I guess I’m officially on vacation until my BRS order comes in next week. That’s probably a good thing.

Oh. The shame.

Here is my goto. I keep it in the fridge -- the fish fridge of course. Not her fridge.

Interesting! And you’ve had no issues with it in your system? I can’t tell if it’s 100% cyanoacrylate.

That eternal flame is ridiculous! Does your colony look like the frags?
I have the most difficult time taking a picture of the colony since its so large but still in my frag tank. Basically the water is too shallow to take a full colony shot in the frag tank and its in a corner that's hard to get a good angle for a straight down shot through the surface of the water. I think I may have posted a pic or two of it before but just impossible to capture it. I'll see if I can just move it to the display and take a colony pic and then move it back to the frag tank. I'm already exhausted just thinking about it. :p

Yeah that just sounds crazy. You should just send it to me and I will get a picture for you. ;)

No problems to date. Ingredients from the SDS sheet:
3.2. Mixture Name Product Identifier
Ethyl cyanoacrylate (CAS-No.) 7085-85-0 > 99%
Poly Methyl Methacrylate (CAS-No.) 9011-14-7 Hydroquinone (CAS-No.) 123-31-9 < 0.2%

Thanks for posting that! Now I have to look up that second ingredient.
