Gorrilla Glue

[bikerfish]

Hi ALL
Just watched a video on you tube where a gentleman atted a piece of driftwood to a piece of slate with gorrilla glue , is this safe to use in tank?
I have got a couple of bits soaking since start of january and they are still floating .

Super glue is fine. Most brands are safe for fish tanks. I just superglued some plants to slate, before it dryed out I put it into the tank for it to hold up better.

Generally epoxy is used in aquariums, that or cyanoacrylate (super glue). The problem with the latter being that it is less water resistant but bonds rapidly to wet things.
 
Gorilla glue make a polyurethane glue, which I probably wouldn't use for this as it's not too good at bonding irregular surfaces, and a superglue, which would be fine.

Hi All
Cheers for answers, think I might try the super glue as nice couple of rocks could stick them to as both bits are quite big and 1 is long
