So this is embarrassing on so many levels. I am having the hardest time keeping my rocks and corals in place. I have used some different types of epoxy and adhesive that is reef safe to try keeping my rock structure in place and corals in place. None of it seems to actually keep my corals in place on the rock structures and my Aqua scape rock work. What is the best adhesive you have used that can be used underwater to stick corals to rocks and keeps rock structure in place.

You can insert some nonporous rods into most rocks for hidden support then I just use two-part epoxy to keep it in place. Cyanoacrylate super glue gel holds corals/frags and you can even glue underwater to keep things simple :)
