Super Glue On Decorations In Aquarium?

[Jackiee]

I have this big, beautiful antique bell decoration that my fish love to hide in, but it was dropped and broken.

I have super glue that's ingredients are Ethyl Cyanoacrylate.
Can I take it out of the tank, dry it, super glue it back together, let the glue dry, and then place it back in the aquarium?

Or would this hurt the fish or my water parameters?
I've read some things on the internet about people saying it's okay, and some not recommending it, but haven't really seen a straight answer.


Bottom line: Will it hurt my fish/water? or not..

I have used cyanocrylate superglue on many occasions in my tanks with no ill effects, so if I were you I'd glue it. Make sure the glue has a couple of minutes to dry before putting it back into the tank.

cheers

+2 ^^^Reefers use it to secure their corals and there no one so pedantic about water than the salties!

I've used to fix a spray bar before and had no problems either

Thanks everyone It's glued back together now, and setting while it dries.
Looks good as new. Fishies are gonna be happy.
