Hey Guys
I have a plastic tree that comes in several pieces which need to slot into each other. I want to glue it together to make sure bits don't fall off while it's in the tank. Can anyone suggest which glue is safe to use for fish/shrimp? Thanks
What glue is safe in an aquarium?

Superglue Gel. Use a big glob of it & cure in the warm water of the tank. I glue all my corals to rocks in my tanks with it.

I use 2 Little Fishies epoxy for that same function. It too is harmless in FW, BW, and SW. It is not cheap, but is quite lasting. I trust Julian.

I buy the Superglue GEL at the $1 store.
