I've used superglue (cyanoacrylate). Some seem to like the gel variety but the $1 store liquid bottles have worked when I've done polyps.

Superglue. I get the larger bottles of thicker stuff from BRS and store it in the freezer to make it thicker. This gives a bit of height to the glue blob for sticking the frag into. I will be checking the dollar store now though to see if I can get a local supply... good idea!

I use dollar store superglue gel and have been for years. Does the trick for me.
