Best way to attach zoas?

I scarped a rock of zoas, and have quite a few chunks, 20-30, anywhere from 10 to 30 or more polyps, of different zoas. They were all on one rock, several colors, but there are 2 distinct types, one has a thicker mat -easy to remove,and the zoas grow faster, and the polyps are larger, the other type is smaller and sticks to the rock almost like they are single polyps. I scraped(chisled) the rock away with the polyps on that type. I know on the ones with the rock, I can just superglue the chunks to rocks, but the ones without rocks, how do I glue them? Will superglue stick to the slimy mat? Can I tie them to rocks? Wedding veil? They were taking over just one big rock, and I wanted to get them on other rocks. They are all in fine shape and opened that same day. They have been off for a week today. Thanks, Steve.
 
I just use a dry paper towel and pat their little back sides, put a dab of super glue gel on them and stick them on a rock and hold it for about 3-4 seconds and place them in a bowl of tank water for about 5 minutes and then back into the tank in a low flow area.
