I am trying to fix my fish aquarium.?

Question

The glass on one of my favorite aquariums broke the other day... it's on the side closest to the wall but i was looking for a cheap fix instead of buying a whole pane of glass... i need something that will bond glass together solid is obviously waterproof and is non-toxic for the fish... any specific ideas would be great...

on a side note i was going to use gorilla-glue but i'm not sure if after it fully cures if it is toxic...

please help... thanks

Answer 1

You shouldn't use anything but pure silicon. Most glues are either toxic or don't allow for any movement which results in breakage. I wouldn't try repairing the tank as you run the risk of another flood really soon. If the tank is a large one, you might find a glass shop that will repair it for you. They'll probably do a much better job as they are accustomed to working with the materials.

Answer 2

I used gorilla glue on my bubble screen in my fishtank about a month ago, and my fishies are still alive. :) I dont think Gorilla glue is toxic...but just let it dry really well!
