saving detached zoa polyps

[boardryder]

I recently purchased a rock with a bunch of zoas on it and in transit there are a handfull of polyps that have detatched from the rock. Some are single and others there are a several together. I don't have any propagating gear, so for now I think I'm just going to place them in my refugium. Will this save them or should I propagate them?

just glue them with krazy glue wherever. they should start new colonies. spread them around your tank

I think I'm going to pick up some frag/rock glue seeing as I have been putting it off for some time. Will they be okay in my refugium for a little while? They are just chilling on the sand bed for now.

Get a piece of some rock rubble and some loctite glue (available in most hardware stores) and some long tweezers. put some glue on the rubble and put the loose zoos on it.

If I use just the basic glues you guys are talking about is my skimmer going to go nuts? Or should I pick up some good fragging glue/epoxy?

yeah there fine, i have zoos that fell of my rock and live in the sand now.

krazy glue works great for me. some people swear by a thicker gel type glue, but regular krazy holds my stuff on great, and non-toxic

Thanks a lot. I have a ton of rubble so I'll just get some glue and frag them on some rock. Hopefully they will be okay while I procrastinate getting some glue.
