Table lost its legs

[dadummy]

Hey there,

have a good size tabling acro that grew too big for the rock and caused a collapse. The coral broke off the rock at the base. Anyone have any thoughts on an easy way to attach the colony back on the rock?

thanks for your help

Nice growth but it's hard to see from the picture what could be done.

If you want to put them back together, I recommend super gel glue. Get 3 packets and glue where it is broken. Hold it still for 2-3minutes in the water. The glue should bond them back together. Then the table should start to encrust and somewhat be back together. This is speaking from personal experience.

didn't think super glue gel could hold the weight, can give it a shot. Base broke off right where it encrusted the rock and should fit right back where it came from..

thanks guys

I would use super glue where the break was and then put the putty on also for support. The putty will hold alot more weight than the cyanocrolate, but it doesn't look as nice.
