ricordia help

i bought 2 orange ricordia yumas yesterday on a small pice of rock. when i got home one had detached itself and was floating around the bag. i got the super glue gel glued him, put him in a tuperware in my sump so that there wouldnt be much flow. however, i wake up this morning and he's loose again!

what is the best way to get him "stuck" to a rock so that i dont loose him!!

Don't use glue. It only gives them a slight chemical burn that causes them to slime up and detach. Your best bet is to place it in an area of little to no flow and let it attach itself, or you can hold it down with some netting like wedding veil.
