This outgrew my tank and died.   I bleached it with chlorine water and a powerhead.  It is so fragile.  Is there something than can be sprayed on (a spray on glue?) or could it be dipped into something to make it less fragile and able to be moved on a long trip?

Epoxy resin would probably work, but it might get expensive for something that size

I was thinking similarly to YH. Might be able to do something like modge podge to give it a little bit of stability. Could always break off a small branch to test. 

Epoxy would work great but you'd need to vacuum chamber it to reliably get out the bubbles.  Why not enclose it in a display box so it can't be touched instead?

I would imagine some matte polyurethane top coat or similar could help some, but you may have to get a few coats deep before there's any noticeable difference in strength.
