I think they are attached using glue sticks of some kind. I was wondering myself if hotglue is reef safe? I reglued mine too.

I used to just tie my rics and mushrooms down with fishing line/zip ties then cutting them off a couple of weeks afterwards.

I superglued one that came off in the bag to another rock and it's held for the last couple hours but it seems to be that they like to sneak away at night, I might try tying them like you suggested, or maybe bridal veil? (Do you think my mother would murder me if i used an actual piece of MY bridal veil??) .... I think I'll just try at the fabric store heh

Anyone have any idea what the midde frag on the rack is? (the red one w/ darker polyps) Poccilopora maybe? With the polyps open it has a much 'softer" look overall now.

Best thing I have found for the bridal veil method is a piece of a bath poof. You can buy one cheap and it has yards of stretchy mesh.
