 Google Polaris applied sciences.  I've reattached tens of thousands of corals.  All-fix for small jobs. Two part epoxy like play dough.   You can carry it in lumps and mix them together underwater.  It will not come apart ever with proper surface preparation.   Big jobs. Portland number 2 cement sand and plaster of Paris (10 percent).   The plaster of Paris is not vital but helps it set up
