Make sure the glue is gel and not the regular runny stuff.

Would'nt that cause alot of stress on the frag? If it is encrusted on to the plug it would probably best not to disturb it. I have received some zoa frags that were applied with the gel glue and they did not do so well. Plus if it is on a plug you can move it around until you find the frags "happy spot". Thats IMHO and i'm no expert by any means.
