Believe it or not. The ones from the dollar tree.

I use a small dab of gel based super glue.

I have tried super glue ( the cyano ones .
Work great for frags to plugs .
but not sure if it works under water .....

I don’t want to lift the 15lb rock out to stick 5 frags to it

I've been using dollar store super glue gel, I have no clue what brand. I also use JB Waterweld because with out it my frags would sometimes come off

 

[Rmckoy]

Used both of these before for attaching frags to plugs and works great out of water .
I tried the coralline colour epoxy .
but to be honest ...
it’s garbage.
Doesn’t stick most times .

Supposedly you can use it underwater. Put a small amount on the frag and then quickly submerge and attach it.

I stand by dollar general. I used ALOT of super glue off Amazon Walmart you name it, nothing comes close.

just my .02

Dollar store is where I’ve always got it from .
But it’s runny , and I don’t think it works under water .

You have to use the Gel glue.
I commonly use the IO stick epoxy to make a seat that conforms to the shapes. It usually sticks well to the rock under water. Then I use the Gel/Thick CA glue to attach the frag to the epoxy seat.

 

[Brady4000]

Every frag on that wall is done with the glue I showed you. It connected in less than 10 secs.

it works 100%



Edit:I placed these all underwater.

 

[Brady4000]

It connects to rock just the same.
