Hia!
Basically i have a REALLY nice piece of cork and I really want to put it in my tank, but its SO floaty :P Was going to drill holes in it and screw it to some slate or something but now i have my arm in a cast so handling drills isn't very easy :)
So the question is, can i superglue it? Either to the bottom of the tank or a big rock? Had loads of different people tell me superglue is and isnt safe, so i reckon this is the best place to come to!
Cheers in advance :)
 
Yes, superglue (as long as it's a pure cyanoacrylate one) is perfectly safe; I use it all the time for sticking plants to wood.

Oh perfect thanks! :) If i look on the back of it will it tell me if its pure cyano stuff? :)
 
Yes, it should do.

this is the one i have.
 
wait you want to super glue the cork bark to the tank? It won't hold it for long.

Better off grabbing some plant weights, or waiting until your arm is out of the cast.
