Advice on building wet scape

[pikastu]

Background: my tank burst in the middle of the night, and in the chaos of trying to catch water spilling out and catch my fish, I knocked apart my rockscape.

I've kept almost all of it live between the sump, my QT, and various buckets with airstones, and I want to keep it this way to avoid restarting a cycle.

Can anyone offer any advice on how best to build a scape that is live? What glue/putty etc will be best for wet rock?

I have one very large rock which has an encrusted goni and leather on it, but I was able to remove all the other corals.

Super thick glue like the one from brs and 2 part epoxy (aqua stick, instant ocean, etc) I recommend cutting small pieces instead of using an entire stick at one time. Hardens up fast

if you can pull a few rocks out for a min and use the accelerator spray on the super glue it’ll never break again lol

Agree with above. I do the glue/epoxy/glue sandwich method when dealing with wet rock
