I've pulled out my hair with this coral many times. Tried glue (yeah, right). elastics, toothpicks (wood & plastic) ... nothing ever seems to work.

One method that I *finally* had success with - plastic tie wraps/aka "cable ties".

I find with these, I can "snug" them down just enough so that the frag doesn't escape the rock, but they don't tend to squeeze/cut through the coral like a rubber band does.

HTH,
