    There's an actual physical change in the tentacle from the normal shape, if you've seen one. They're much longer and thinner, and have a bubbled tip at the end.

    They have gel type crazy glue at home depot. I saw it in little single-use tubes, 4 to a pack.

    The crazy glue gel you can apply to the coral out of water, put a good size blot on it. Then stick it in the water and push it onto the rock. Hold for a bit and it should be glued. Its safe to do it that way.
