Yes, be careful with the Aquascape Milliput Epoxy. If you overwork it in the aquarium your corals might react harshly to it. Last time I did it the majority of the corals in the tank started spewing mucus - either byproduct or chem warefare - I don't know. Carbon took care of it.

thats the stuff i've been using. i try to not play around with it too much in the tank. it seems to cloud up the water around the spot if you work it too much in the tank. just get it nice and warm in your hands when you mix it so its nice and soft and then its easy to place without any ill effects. IMO.

I find the purple stuff takes too long to set,and dosn't work as well as the white stuff.If Im trying to attach a frag or rock on a verticle surface,the purple wont hold long enough for the epoxy to set and the piece always falls off when Im not looking.The white stuff will hold,and you can mold it in the tank without it disinigrating, but looks awfull for the first month or so.
