What coral glue are you using?

[Chris A.]

The glue I’ve been using keeps failing and I’m sick of getting home and have colonies on top of each other. So what do you guys use and recommend?

 

[Drichards]

Gorilla super glue gel

That’s what I was using

Combination of BRS glue or Ecotech, whichever one I happen to grab first. Also, just purchased some Glue Masters yesterday. When it comes in, I'll let you know how it is.

I always used the bsi glue, but recently I got the polyp lab glue and I really like it. It's not nessecary, but they are for sure not all the same.

I agree they’re not all the same. The best one I’ve used so far was the echotech Cg but it’s kinda pricey

BSI IC-GEL works for me.

I've never tried the ecotech . Honestly if you had asked me 6 months ago I would have said that name brand glue was a total scam, but I got the polyp lab glue with one of those $10 bulk reef things and I do like it.

So I just ordered the seachem glue, 3 x 20g tubes for $20 on Amazon. Price is decent and it’s 3 tubes instead of just one. Well let everyone know how this works out.

super cheap, lots of small tubes, holds well, wish it set up a bit faster but there are ways of making that happen

 

[SteveDola]

bsi for corals

 

[ReefAddict]

I've tried them all, always go back to BSI IC gel

 

[Skmaiden]

Extra thick BRS glue, 1oz for around $6

 

[Bandit13]

Gorilla super glue gel

Ditto, buy multiple bottles on amazon for good price.

Put pea sized glob on frag tile, Dip in salt water, then twist frag back and forth on the glob a few times and redunk. The dunking hardens the glue faster and twisting it helps set it.

I use BSI IC Gel too

I’ve never had a problem with this for frag placement or making frags. Good for underwater use because 1) Metal tubes so no bounce-back after you squeeze which keeps water out. 2) Small tubes so if they do close up you don’t waste too much 3) pretty cheap ~$2 per tube usually
