    What type "glues" can you use to secure scroll type corals to rocks or glass while they are in the tanks?

    Thanks

    I was thinking epoxy putty but wasn't sure if it would be safe to put into the water before it cured. Thanks for the tip.

    It's safe, just watch your skimmer after using the epoxy. The stuff tends to make skimmers overskim a whole lot for a little while if you use any decent amount.
