yeah it will work zoos can be out of water for a long time. I put mine the same way with crazy glue. Ran a dap on the rock and place the zoo on then blew some air on it for about 30 seconds to give it a hard. Then let it sit for about 3 minutes and place it back on the water and BAM it worked ive dont it many time with no ill effevt.

You need to be careful using non-gel super glue because it heats up when curing and can burn and kill your frag.

BSI is good stuff. I have tried a few of the others and none work as well as the BSI. Hobby Town Murrietta and I think Pegasus in Montclair usually has it.
