    i used a rubber band to attach mine, but some people will use super glue-gel, and ive seen people use the rock epoxy many different ways

    If I use the super glue should I do it out of water or jar do it in the tank or does it matter?

    just put a blob on and squish it where you want it,i've glued both in and out of the tank.You gotta be quick underwater as it skins fast.

    I've also heard of toothpicking it to holes in the rock.

    I use Super Glue Gel and do it outside of the tank. Takes about 10 seconds for the glue to start sticking to the mat of GSP. Then I just place it back in the tank.
