fish friendly

[blackfinshark_3]

in my tank i have a nice rock cave
-3 stories
-3 caves
-very nice

well when ever i have to move it for vacumming or etc its not together so the rocks fall apart and i have to start all over again.

i was thinking that for my future 20g dp tank and my present 10g, that i could use a simple hot glue gun to glue all the rocks together so i can make it one big peace. or if that isnt good use some epoxy? i dont wanna use anything from the lfs since its muchos denero. but if i cant use a hot glue gun or epoxy anything i can find from walmart that will work.

i live right beside one

will it be fish friendly?

Your best bet will be some silicone sealant, but you have to make sure it is safe for the aquarium. Walmart may carry some. If you search for sealant you should find something

this post may have the answer you want

At Wal Mart all i've Seen in Aquarium Safe Sealent are the SMALL Tubes for Repairing Leaks in their Fish Dept.
For Gun sized Tubes you'll prob have to get it from a Mail Order PS.

Hot Melt would Work as long as it's not the Mettalliac Type. But in my Experence it comes apart TOO Easy in Aquarium Use.

I would Say Epoxy that is Aquarium Safe, you should be able to get it at your LPS for around 10 bucks, and it Should Do quite abit of work.

The stuff I've got and used you can Work with and it Cures Underwater, You can use it to Mount living Rock and the like, So U know it's Fish Safe.
I've used it to Make Rock Structures and the Like in My Tanks, And i can PROMISE YOU it won't come apart Under Normal Use, About the Only way to get them apart is with a Hammer...
