When attaching frags - how long can they be out of the water?

[FishWatcher]

I want to super glue some zoanthids, how long can they safely be out of the water?

For hours, and that ain't no typo!

Although it's best to avoid as much stress as possible, many corals can stay out of water for some amount of time.

Zoanthids can make quite a slime coat so they should be okay for a little more time.


Remember that many corals in places are fully exposed during low tide.
