frag glue

Hi,
I am new to reef keeping and I am wondering what kind of glue this is that you can glue frags to rocks. I keep reading that it is super glue. Is it really super glue? If so many things are toxic to fish, how in the world can super glue be safe?:confused:

That's what I've been using to glue my frag and it's been fine so far.

I use the gel super glue. It is thicker.

Not just any glue... must be "Cyanoacrylate"

Correct but most "super" glues now a days contain Cyanacrylate. Well atleast down here in South Florida that I've seen.

Key word... "most."

Always a good idea to check.

Also, for whatever reason, GARF does not like the brand name "krazy glue" and they recommend against its' use.
