Duke Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Just finished watching the video... eyeing up my corals now. Which one first. I think it will be cutting some mushrooms in half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 Been a long weekend, anybody who hasn't done it before do a bit of "chopping?" How did it go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 That superglue he was talking about, anybody know a good one for the purpose that can be purchased here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 cookie rekons zeovit speedglue is pretty good. I'm guessing you use it for corals?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suphew Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 how mch is it?? does any one know? I just used some normal old fast set superglue to make up some frags, I had a rock fall over and it broke off some tip, decided it give it a go. I have done lrger frags with aquakneedit but it is a pint to use they seem to come loose more often than not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 Yes I have some speed glue but it's a slighly different application, you use it for bigger jobs, the sort of thing you would otherwise use two part epoxy for. I was looking at the way he glued those fine wafers on, need something to do that type of thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 So just normal superglue is good, Suphew? I assume the bits must be thoroughly dry first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suphew Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 yeah, paper towel to dry surfaces. superglue is good, was designed to glue peoples bits together in the war so is non-toxic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 Righty Ho! I'll head off to Bunnings & get started! Wasn't it amazing to see those brains get cut up. I thought it would get chopped in 1/2, and then he just keeps going & going! Had me cringing to watch, but he will certainly get a heckuva lot of corals from one big one!

wasp Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 Well went & got the supa glue & chopped up a few acro frags just to try it out, very effective and incredibly easy! wish i'd tried supa glue years ago. There was one that claims to be dishwasher safe ie it doesn't leach any toxins, and it is a gel, so that is the one I got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimera Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 out of the water though im picking so not good for setting on rocks that are fixed in place or cant be moved? or is it special underwater super glue?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasp Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 Yes the surfaces had to be dry, but I just towelled them they were still a bit damp, but it worked OK. Would be awesome if there was something like that could be used under water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wasp Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 May not be a silly idea :lol: Used with something that encrusts quickly no doubt would do the job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM Posted June 8, 2006 Report Share Posted June 8, 2006 Has been sugested before my someone, does work well though. You do need to sit it in a low flow are longer than supa glue or neadit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelifaxNZ Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 Wow thanks Bubbles for posting this movie. It's fantastic! It makes me cringe whenever he uses that tile cutter! Amazing how rough he is with the corals and yet they survive?! Right now to watch the next half of it..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 The super glue Eric is using is Locklite and you can get it from blackwoods (Pykels) and you keep it in the fridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
