![]() Which epoxy are you using. There is two kinds. One is a single stick containing both parts of the epoxy. This one REALLY sucks. As soon as it hits the water it losses all its stick. The other has the two sticks of stuff that you combine. This one works much better IME, although it to has its limitations. You may need to temporarily brace the pieces over night while the epoxy hardens.

![]() The type I used last night was the first you described....the one stick. It was absolutely maddening. I have, however, used the other kind....and without great success either.

![]() I've been using the two stick stuff, "AquaScape Construction Epoxy" for quite a while and it works quite well.
I find it works best to press the putty into the rock where you want the coral, then press the coral to the putty
