Torch Coral Glue???

What is the best way to attach loose torch coral to existing live rock? I was thinking a glue, putty, or some sort of expoxy would work...if anyone has any suggestions please advise. Also i don't want anything that may be deemed harmful to the tissue and calcerous outer skeleton. Thanks - Davd

just place it on the base of the torch coral skeleton and place it where you want it and hold it in place for a min or two...
