Its a great idea, but two things:

Dont get the white. It is blarringly noticable and stays neon uber white for ages.

Attach the stuff to the frag outside of the tank, and put it in. I found it annoying to try to secure it underwater. Its not as "sticky" as you think it's going to be, so a lot of my attempts were very loose fitting.

All in all its a great new product for sure.

It's awesome for building rock structures but I don't like it as much for frags. You have to work fast and if it cools off it doesn't stick very well.

Haven't picked any up yet, but have a couple ideas for toning down the white. Either by kneading in some charcoal powder or extra coralline algae? There may be a reef safe dye out there...
And if using it to secure a frag to your rockwork, maybe the "sammich" technique (dab of crazy glue, ball of aquaweld, dab of crazy glue?) just be quick about it and should set up quick and conform quite nicely. As far as building rockscape it looks like it does a solid job of that. Looking forward to trying it out, and may be useful for other stuff around the house too
