Most dollar stores carry gel glue. Works well for me. and at $1 for 3-5 ml your not buying $50 worth of glue that hardens before you get to it.

I've used Extra thick Glue from the Hobby shops before, but its still too thin to build up a decent size glob that can then be taken under water.

Ecotech glue is suppose to be the cats ass though.

Concept stocks it.

it's definitely the best glue i've used as well. but if you glue-epoxy-glue combo anything you glue down it doesn't seem to matter.

I'm going to try out the 2p10 stuff as I can get it local and it's a much better value cost per gram wise.

Grizz,

Definitely report back after you give it a shot. I dont have as many frags as you but it would be good to hear how it works.

Hey greg. Did you try the 2P-10 yet. I would like to try it but am wondering how well it works underwater. I want to glue frags directly to some large rocks without moving the rocks.

Not to seem petty (I'm having a really lousy day) but given the responses I've posted and the fact that I was the one who originally told everyone about this product, I'm not sure if I should be offended or not.

Dont be offended dude!! Your the main reason I went and bought some to try out and that should be all that matters.

I have noticed that not everyone reads every single post in a thread

There was no offense intended. I forgot about your original post suggesting it. The more opinions the better anyways. how does it work for submerging the bottle? theres lots of rock that i cant pull out of my tank and i apply the glue in the water, can you easily do that with this glue?

Hey Bob, yes I did try it on a couple little frags that where constantly falling off the rocks last night and I can say that they are still solid in place this morning.
