I was plumbing behind the cabinet today when all of my rocks toppled over. Luckily I had no glass breaks but needless to say I need some quick fixes on bonding rocks underwater. Apparently the zip ties and epoxy weren't enough.
 
I've used epoxy (jb waterweld) with super glue underwater, not the tidiest but it worked. The superglue helps the epoxy stick to the rock better.
 
I use superglue for fast hold but I put two little fishes/ coral stick i think it is two part epoxy. I find the epoxy alone is insufficient to get immediate stick, but gives long term stability.
