Super Glue and Java Fern/Moss

[Hollygirl]

I just finished using super glue on a cave to which I have attached Java fern and some moss. The tube says to let whatever you are gluing sit for ten minutes. Does that apply to aquarium plants too? How long before I can add water to the tank? I had a link with the info in a recent thread but it was removed. Thanks in advance for your help.

Depends on the type of superglue....Superglue gel is used all the time when attaching corals to rock...cures in the water...

This is Liquid Super glue by "Loctite"

couldn't hurt to put it in a separate container of water to cure, right?

Too late - LOL! So far everything is okay. I called the store and they said it is the same thing so we'll see. I glued the ferns by the runners. Once all the bubbles clear I'll post pics.
