I just got some very nice monti cap frags from some great members of Maast. I've got some plugs and super glue gel. I tried to glue a frag, but can't seem to make it stick. I am afraid of leaving the frag out of the water for too long while it sets. Can someone tell me HOW to glue it properly without damaging the cap? Thanks, Adriana

With Monti Caps, people just usualy wedge them between some rocks and allow them to encrust rather than putting them on plugs. If thats what you want to do, make sure both surfaces are dry and use ample ammount of super glue GEL, thats what works best. Dont be too concerned about leaving them out of the water for a short period of time, theyre very rezilliant and arent as fragile as most people think...

Thanks. I tried wedging them, but the flow in the tank jiggles them a bit and I don't want to stress them out. I'll try it again.
