Question about fragging my sponges...

Hi everyone. I got some small sponges from my LFS a while back cause they looked cool. Now, my sponges have grown very very large. I have a blue sponge, orange tree sponge, and another kind of orange sponge. I understand you can cut off any piece you want as a frag, but is it ok to glue it to a frag plug? Or do I have to use a rubber band?

I've always had good luck just wedging them into a crevice. Not that glue/epoxy won't work, it's just that sponges sort of have a different "texture" to them It's a sponge...

Whatevers clever trever.

Yeah exactly haha. It's just that I read that glue can possibly damage the delicate tissue of the sponge.
