Default 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?

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.

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.
