normal superglue is harder to use, but it still works. The Gel glue from Loc-tite is great. I've been using it with GREAT success for a long time now. I've glued about 12 frags in the last few days and still have a bunch of the glue left in the bottle. And if you're careful, you can keep the nozzle clean so you don't have to dick with it to clean it out to reuse it again.
reefwreak, i also swear by the loc-tite super glue gel...it works great! you can get it at the paint dept in home depot for $2.50. so buy 2 bottles because it does run out especially when you need it most.
Ebay has bsi IC Gel glue for about $5.99...not a bad price and shipping is not bad either.
I have used locally available gel glues of many kinds.
IMO....BSI IC-GEL is the best!!!! So if you can get it, I highly recommend it.
I agree with reddawg43. bsi gel is the best that I have used so far. The smaller tubes of other brands seem to be half full and when you use it, it usually just keeps oozing out if you dont put the cap one right away. bsi does not do that.
I would prefer to get it locally so I will have it this weekend, otherwise I will check ebay.
Thanks
I am going to order some on line. Does anyone want to order some also? It will be $6.50 per .7 oz (20 gr.) tube. They can be picked up at the next fish meeting. Let me know asap as I will be placing the order today.

Hi Reddawg43,
Yes that is with shipping included. I am also thinking of ordering the frag things. If anyone is interested, we can order together and save some on shipping.
Due to the holiday they may not be here for the next meeting but you are in Ft. Lauderdale....not to far from me, so I could pick up any time.
Thank you so much.
Another vote for IC-gel. I used the loctite gel before trying this, and it's much better. Thicker and seems to set faster, and unlike other superglues, this one can actually be closed up and reused another day (it doesn't dry out). Big tube can mount a lot of frags. I think I did around 100 frags for the last frag swap and didn't finish a tube.
the little loc-tite bottles with the blue butttons on the side that you press can be opened up when it seems they are empty, just break the plastic and there should be some more glue left in the tube
reddawg43,
The glue came in yesterday. I have not heard about a meeting this Tuesday. There is one, isnt there? If so, I will be there with the glue. pm sent also
