Did you put it in the microwave first? That makes it easier to mix and sets faster.

I have been using milliput to place frags for a long time, and works great for me.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

Thanks for the quick response.

No I did not microwave the epoxy. How quick will it set after its been microwaved?

I'm also looking for opinions between the Vertex and Milliput epoxies for aquascaping.

Switched to Vertex last year and love it. Sets faster, but still ample time to get it molded and set in place before it becomes to hard. Sticks well under water and colour blends well with the rocks. Yep, stinks...but no worse then a dead snail or overdue skimmer clean : )
