Collection: Frag Glues and Epoxy

Glue or Putty, or Both

Cyanoacrylate gel grabs quickly and suits small frags going onto plugs and discs. Two-part putty has body to it, filling gaps and carrying weight, which is what you want for seating a colony on uneven rock or locking aquascape pieces together. Using both at once — putty for the bulk, a bead of gel to set it — is common practice.

What's in This Collection

• Cyanoacrylate gels — thick and gap-filling grades, from small tubes through to 8oz bottles.
• Two-part epoxy putty — tinted putties in 150g, 300g and 600g sizes for larger joins and aquascaping.
• Slow-cure liquid epoxy — around 30 minutes of working time for jobs that need careful positioning.
• Accelerator spray — sets cyanoacrylate on demand rather than leaving you waiting.

Work dry and work in one movement. Cyanoacrylate cures on contact with moisture, so pat the mount dry, press the frag home once and leave it there rather than repositioning it. Putty is far more forgiving and can be kneaded and shaped underwater. Questions? Email info@jlaquatics.com.
