Paly Heads Fell off frag

[Zakary2003]

I bought a toxic green palythoa yesterday. It had three heads. Two of the heads were pulled off by a hermit crab and I was able to recover one of them. Can I reattach it to the frag plug? It seems mostly intact but there's definitely some damage, and the remaining polyp is closed tight.

Not a problem, crazy glue will do the trick. Make sure the surface of the frag plug is nice & dry before applying glue.

I've had the same thing happen before, crabs pulled off the polyps. If you just use super glue you can do it with everything wet. Super glue actually cures faster with water anyhow, just give it a few minutes to set. The crab will go back to them though if you don't do something about it, I ended up getting rid of mine.

Yeah, he's going to the local fish store tomorrow to find a new home. Hopefully he will leave everything alone until then.
