yes you can use superglue gel, but make sure its gel... or you can also use plumbers putty... but super glue is easier.

I use both, simultaneously, that is. I take a piece of epoxy and affix it to a rock and dab some of the gel on it. Then I take the coral's rock and put some epoxy on that (note that for this method, you don't need a ton, at all). Then I stick the two epoxy pieces together and mold it around to make sure it grips the rock well and that's it. It is held down well and the glue adds the needed adhesive effect. This also works great with 'sps' frags.
