Works great if used in conjunction with a thick Cyanoacrylates based glue.
As usual another two little fishes products work great.If your new to using this stuff I suggest you check out some YouTube videos on gluing corals to rock work.First of all don't expect this stuff to stick to the rocks or corals. It will stick a bit but will not really hold on for very long. You kind of mix it into the shape you need then put a generous layer of Cyno based glue like Gorilla Glue or anyone of the dozens out there. Mold the part with the glue onto the corals base and try not to get any on the living part of the coral. Then quickly flip it around and apply Cyno glue to the other side that will be going on the rock and as soon as that is on quickly submerge it and mold the other side onto the rock and hold in place for a minut or two. The cyno glue creates the great bond and the putty creates the moldable foundation. Also it's a good idea to clean the area on the rock with a toothbrush to remove any grit or ditritous. Also watch your Protein skimmer very carefully. The Putty will send it mad and it will overflow within minutes. I typically clean my skimmer out before starting and then lower the bubble level until the skimmer stops reacting to the glue and putty. Also wear surgical gloves or your going to have cyno glue sticking your fingers together. The glue dries very fast when in contact with the water and if the tip of the cyno glue bottle gets wet the glue inside will harden very quickly.

Better then others I tried
The media could not be loaded. I actually attempted this for a 3rd time, and I got to say, don't go cheap! This hold is much stronger, I was able to make a floating shelf and arches with no added structures to secure weight, but I did use extra thick reef glue as well, so not sure of the strength without it. I recommend the combination, as now I can glue my frags without fear

Reliable, with Minor Room for Improvement
The Two Little Fishies Aquastik Coraline Red Jumbo has been a significant addition to my marine aquarium maintenance toolkit. The color matches perfectly with coralline algae and live rock, which provides a natural aesthetic to my tank that I highly appreciate.This putty has proven to be quite useful for minor adjustments and fastening small elements within my aquarium. It adheres reasonably well to both corals and rocks, and after some time, it becomes virtually indistinguishable from the natural surroundings.I admire the fast drying nature of this product. This feature is a double-edged sword, though; on the one hand, it allows me to quickly set my underwater landscapes, but on the other, it can sometimes be challenging to use because of its rapid setting time.One key point to consider is that it does have a tendency to make the water a bit cloudy initially. However, in my experience, this issue resolves itself with time and some filtration.Regarding the consistency of the putty, it can become quite soft underwater, which might be different from what some users might expect. However, once you get the hang of it, this feature can actually be quite beneficial for molding and positioning.In summary, the Two Little Fishies Aquastik serves its purpose well for small to medium tasks and brings a seamless look to the aquascape. It could be improved in terms of its usability and initial water cloudiness, but overall, I believe it to be a useful tool for any marine or reef aquarium hobbyist.

Did not work for me
This product did not work for me. I tried putting the putty on the marco rock to secure it and it did not work at all. I will have to find a way to secure my live rock another way. Won't waste my time trying this again.

Two lil Fishies Aqua stick putty is my goTo putty! The consistency when mixed is better than other brands I have used. Great for sps frags or building an aquascape and securing live rocks together. I love that it cures fast underwater and dries hard ! Definitely recommend. The coralline purple color blends in nice as well!

Two little fishies epoxy
Two little fishies epoxy works way better then the other epoxy on the market. Wetting you hands makes it easier to work with and I use this with superglue to glue corals to pugs or plugs to aquascape!

Hoping it’s good.
Some of these putty adhesives are too okd and dried out. But you won’t know until you go to use it.

Works
Used a good amount to adhere my rockwork together and also used a small amount for frags. I let the rock work sit out for 24 hours before putting it in my reef and it was completely solid. Also used super glue with the epoxy. The color is good, just make sure to really work the puddy because I still found some grey streaks in places.A little pricey for plumbers epoxy but it'll look much better once the coralline populates the rocks.
