? about super glue
 
Was wondering if this dollar store super glue is safe to glue down some frags in my display tank. It contains Ethyl 2 cyanoacrylate. Thanks

Hi, whats this stuff called please? Is any dollar store crazy glue reef safe, anything I need to be aware of? Thanks

Yes, reef safe. You can use anything that says cyanoacrylate. I use Loctite gel super glue, the gel kind works much better.

Totally agree. My local dollar store thinks I’m nuts when I come in and clear out the rack!

This stuff does smell kind of strong. Do I just add to the bottom of the plug and set in place and hold? if so, how long does it usually take. Thanks

Yep, apply above water, place it where you want quickly. I just hold it until it stays, less than 30 seconds.
