Aquaforest Stone Fix 250ml is a fast-bonding cement-based aquarium adhesive designed for securing live rock, ceramic rock and reef aquascaping structures. Ideal for marine aquarium s, reef tanks and aquascape builds, this specialist rock cement helps create strong, stable and natural-looking rock formations for corals, fish and invertebrates. Designed for connecting larger rock pieces, Aquaforest Stone Fix is especially useful when building reef structures, arches, shelves, caves and stable rockwork. Once mixed with water, it forms a workable paste that can be applied directly between rock pieces, helping create secure joins without the need for unsafe household adhesives or unsuitable construction materials. Key Features Fast-bonding cement-based aquarium rock adhesive Designed for joining live rock and ceramic rock Ideal for reef aquascaping and marine rock structures Helps build arches, caves, shelves and stable rock formations Safe for fish and invertebrates when used as directed Does not contain toxic compounds Suitable for marine aquarium aquascaping Can be used with Aquaforest AF Rock and reef ceramics Recommended for use outside the aquarium where possible Compact 250ml pack size for smaller aquascaping projects Product Overview Aquaforest Stone Fix has been developed for aquarists who want to build secure and natural-looking rock structures in marine aquariums. Loose rock piles can shift over time, especially when disturbed by fish, invertebrates, water movement or routine maintenance. Stone Fix helps bond individual rock pieces together, creating a stronger and safer aquascape. This cement-based adhesive is particularly useful when creating reef structures that need to hold their shape, such as arches, overhangs, coral shelves and island-style aquascapes. It can be used with live rock, dry reef rock and ceramic rock, making it a versatile choice for both new setups and aquascape adjustments. Benefits for Reef Aquariums Aquaforest Stone Fix helps improve the safety and stability of reef aquascapes. Secure rockwork reduces the risk of rock collapses, which can damage corals, injure livestock or crack aquarium glass. Stable rock structures also make it easier to position corals, maintain flow and create natural swimming spaces for fish. By allowing aquarists to bond rock pieces together, Stone Fix makes it easier to create open, modern reef structures rather than relying on unstable piles of rock. This can improve water movement, reduce detritus traps and create better coral placement options. Suitable For Aquaforest Stone Fix 250ml is suitable for: Marine aquariums Reef aquariums Live rock structures Ceramic rock structures Dry reef rock aquascapes Aquaforest AF Rock Reef arches and shelves Coral placement structures New saltwater aquarium setups Aquascape repairs and adjustments This product is primarily designed for bonding large pieces of aquarium rock and reef ceramic. It is not intended as a general coral frag glue for small coral cuttings. Aquascaping Benefits Aquaforest Stone Fix is ideal for creating strong, custom reef structures. It allows aquarists to build rockwork with more height, shape and depth than loose stacking alone. It is useful for creating: Reef arches Coral shelves Rock islands Cave structures Overhangs Stable base rock layouts Custom Aquaforest AF Rock structures Secure foundations for coral placement Using Stone Fix during aquascape construction can help produce a cleaner, safer and more professional reef layout. How to Use Mix a small amount of Aquaforest Stone Fix with water until it forms a smooth, homogeneous paste. Apply the mixture immediately to the areas of rock you want to bond, then press the pieces together firmly. Shape and smooth the cement around the join as needed. Once connected, leave the pieces to bond for around 15 minutes before moving them. Aquaforest recommends using Stone Fix outside the aquarium where possible. This gives better control over the bond, reduces clouding and helps avoid unnecessary changes to aquarium water chemistry. In-Aquarium Use Advice If Stone Fix must be used underwater, switch off circulation pumps and return flow during application to prevent the cement from spreading through the aquarium. Temporary water cloudiness may occur and is not usually harmful, but care should still be taken in aquariums containing livestock. Because Stone Fix may raise pH temporarily, avoid bonding more than 2–3 pieces per day in an aquarium that already contains fish, corals or invertebrates. For larger aquascaping projects, it is best to build the structure outside the aquarium before adding it to the system. Usage Advice Only mix the amount of Stone Fix that you can use immediately, as the cement begins to set quickly once mixed with water. For stronger joins, make sure the rock surfaces are clean and stable before application. Press pieces together firmly and avoid moving them while the cement is setting. For heavy rock structures, allow extra curing time before placing them into the aquarium or exposing them to strong flow. Wear gloves during use and avoid inhaling dust when handling the dry powder. When to Use Aquaforest Stone Fix 250ml is useful when: Building a new reef aquascape Joining live rock or ceramic rock Creating arches, caves and shelves Stabilising loose rockwork Repairing or adjusting reef structures Building Aquaforest AF Rock layouts Creating coral placement platforms Preventing rock collapses Designing open reef aquascapes with better flow Maintenance Advice Once cured, check the bonded rockwork for stability before adding it to the aquarium. If the join feels weak or the structure moves under light pressure, reinforce it before use. In established aquariums, inspect bonded areas during maintenance if livestock regularly disturb the rockwork. Avoid placing heavy corals or unstable rock pieces on weak joins without additional support.
