new black coral glue

[jhale]

I just saw this black colored coral glue at champion lighting.

I don't know how good the glue is, but I like the idea.
I hate looking at the white cyno glue when the frags first go in the tank.

Cool! Black glue on the LR definitely looks better than the whie glue glowing under the lights.

Hey, we can probably call Gary at Champion for a group buy. They are very willing to offer group buys.

"New black formula give the appearance of a black sponge encrusting the base of your frags for a more natural look"

We've got to stop the glue bias now guys...Black...white..white...black its all the same :lol: I just had to say it..i might be in for some tooo

 

[jhale]

lol, I'll look for some purple glue.

Krazy Glue already has some out. Problem is it's not the gel. But it is made of cyanoacrylate.

I'll like the idea of black glue, but why the disclaimer: "Must be used out of the water."? Makes me wonder if there's something that can leech out, if allowed to cure in the tank.

yeah when I red that it turned me off. I have the purple 2 part epoxy workd well I actually like it bettre than the cyno

Just got off the telephone with Champion - The answer to the question is: As soon as it makes contact with water it hardens.

Gary says that he can do $8.90 each if 12 are purchased.

Man, the cyano Maxi-cure is 1/2 the price shipped for the 1 oz bottle - has vanity hits an all-time high?

In a few weeks the white glow of the maxicure is covered by a brown/green and eventually either covered with coral or coralaine.

Not worth the additional $5 (plus shipping) if you ask me.

cool. thanks for calling.

I still have questions though. When I glue frags to the large rocks I apply the glue in layers on the base of the frag. with each application of glue I dip the frag in the water then press and twist the frag in place. the glue squish's out and makes a nice clump that holds the frag firmly in place. I recently switched to using bob smiths IC-Gel and have to do less layering.

I wonder how the black cyno glue works? I guess we'll have to get some to try it out.

I down for a tube. Running out of the clear/white stuff. Besides, I find that it looks horrible if you put it in the water too soon after applying.

If we get enough orders together I would have no problem accepting the order at my office. People could pick it up either downtown at my office or at my home in Upper Manhattan.
