NOT another Optics thread

I won't ask another "which lenses should I use to put my LED's 12 feet above my tank" question but rather one that I haven't seen yet.

Does anyone have a trick to get XP series optics to stay on the star more betterer? Most are sticking well but some are awefully loosey goosey and I don't feel like fishing them out of the tank constantly. Glue? Silly Putty?

Thanks in advance.

Please excuse my sarcasm - not intending to offend anyone. Past the hour edit window.
