Morning all!
So lately I have been waking up to my tank being rearranged - more noticeable now I have a few corals that are easily moved.
My little zoa clusters constantly flipped upside down and my leather keeps getting knocked off its spot.

So I need to get rid of some of my big turbos , if anyone wants to swap for smaller snails let me know, but I also want to attach my zoas and leather to their locations. I seen people using reef glue but my biggest concern is if I glue it.. How permanent goes the glue fix ? Will I be able to move it again?
And do I use the glue in the tank? Out of the tank? Does it need to cure? Where do I get said reef glue?

Coming from freshwater glue and tanks was a no no and any gluing was done prior to filling with water and left to cure for a while.

Need to sort out asap as I don't want to disturb my coral growth.

Someone please fill me in on how the eff this is possible?

I'm assuming it has something to do with the salt in the water? Same kind of thing how soap won't lather? Maybe glue doesn't leech?

Well I ended up hitting bunnings and it works.
I used it to glue my zoa clusters to spots in the tank and put one piece of Rock in place.
Takes a couple of minutes to really grip but worked well.
