What might be offensive in smell is not necessarily bad for you or fish. SUper glue is commonly used in saltwater tanks for all kind so uses, and its perfectly safe to use in a fresh or salt water environment. Its even possible and done routinely to stick items to live rock and sych while the item is submerged. Only one part needs to be out of the water to apply the glue then simply submerge and place. Gel is the best type of super glue...... On Mon, 21 Nov 2005 09:48:47 +1100, "Assilem" <nospam@forme.com > wrote: >===<>Can any one reccomend an safe glue for aquarium ornaments?

In fact, cyanoacrylate was sometimes used on injured solders during the Vietnam War to stop bleeding, so it can't be that toxic to begin with. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanoacrylate - Logic316 "...trusting the government with your privacy is like having a Peeping Tom install your window blinds." -- John Perry Barlow
