AquaScape Construction Aquarium Epoxy 4 oz. - Coraline Algae

I dodnt get the hang of this until I wasted a full tub or tube... I have switched to out of water application and then place in wster to cure. <br><br>After my learning curve, I discovered a few things i was doing wrong;<br>- applying to 2 surfaces/objects underwater didn't work for me... i apply to one surface at LEAST OUT OF WATER<br><br>-WET LIVE ROCK IS SLIMY FROM NATURAL ALGEA IF SURFACE IS SMOOTH, I DRY THE AREA ON LIVE ROCK WI TH H PAPER TOWEL DABBING. MY LIVE ROCK IS FINE OUT OF WATER FOR 5 MIN NO PROBLEM FOR ME SO FAR.<br><br>-WILL STIR UP FU OUR TANK IF APPLICATION IS UNDERWATER<br><br>-I WOULFNT APPLY UNDERWATER WITH LIVE FISH<br><br>-CURING: starts fast underwater, but tskes 48 houes to finish... or longer. Ive seen many corals knocked down by curious hetmitcrabs that were curing. Then u have to DC o it all over... AGAIN<br><br>BEST DONE BEFORE ADDING WATER OR FISH. <br>BEST DRY APPLICATION. EMPTY TANK... BEST TIME TO AD ANYTHING NOT ALIVE AND AQUASCAPE DRY <br>CURE WITH TANK WATER. <br><br>-DONT WAST YOURV TIME WITH PARTIALLY STARTING TO CURE EPOXY. THROW OUT. NOT STIVKY ANYMORE, NO PURPOSE, CUT LOSSES USE A NEW CHUNK.<br>

Order this product for two uses. Built a new aquarium and used it to hold dry rock together that would later blend in with coralline algae, the second was to secure coral underwater in an existing tank. Worked great in both wet and dry applications.

GREAT COLOR BUT NOT FAST SETTING OR AS STRONG AS OTHERS ON THE MARKET. I LIKE USING THE GREY APOXY FIRST AND COLORING OVER IT WITH THIS ONE.

This epoxy is the real deal. I was able to create over over hangs with rocks weighing 4-5 lbs. Microwave like the instructions say for a easier application. I added small bits of rubble while the it was drying to hide the epoxy as much as possible. Even though it's a purply color it stands out next to coralline.

Very happy with price and quality.

Easy to mix 2 parts together warm it up 10 sec in microwave and mix for 5 min bonds great and has a beautiful purple color

Better then all the ones I have used in the past. Big plus is it doesn't stink like some of the others. Works great.

Was surprised to find 2 separate sticks in 1 box, but once you get the hang of it, it bonds together well. They suggest heating the product in a microwave, I would also highly recommend it also. I put it in for about 10sec to warm it up, much more pliable and easier to mix the 2 parts together. So far everything has stuck, seems to work better than a lot of other epoxy putty.

Great stuff, works as advertised. Corals don't seemed bothered by it. Tip, read instructions on how to use microwave to accelerate curing. Works much better!!

What can I say. It works as advertised. It does exactly what it says it will. Great stuff.

I used this to secure my coral frags and they stayed put without any difficultly.

good epoxy, I have used the other brand name (cant remember) but it didn't stick to live rocks. This one does. Don't use too much because you don't need that much of it once its set. Holds very well.

I have tried several of the available epoxys on the market. This one is definitely the best available. It is sticky when first formed, offers ample working time, and holds the item in place once in the tank. Once cured it holds very well, very tough to remove. Color looks as natural as epoxy can, not far off from coralline algae.

PLEASE, everybody listen to me, I have tried all popular epoxies, from Holdfast to Aquastick, both of those did absolutely nothing for me, and one even came with the skin of the stick already hardened, actually ordered two of them and they both were the same. DD has the BEST, comes like it should and holds great. Don't waste your time, purchase this epoxy, you will not be disappointed!
