Help - Need Advice And Glue In Tank

[neilw_uk]

Hi,

I need some help - I just managed to break my powerhead and cant fit it back into the tank.. The only way is to glue is back together.

Can anyone tell me if i could use Araldite (two part epoxy) and if it will be safe in the tank (in the water)? My LFS said it would be fine.

Any advice?

Thanks

Neil

I use pvc pipe cement on plastic, it's safe for water supply pipes, and is safe in aquariums.

Thanks for the reply.. as it happens i found an old powerhead that broke about a year ago (new it would come in handy)..

I did look on the back of the epoxy box and there is an image which says Danger to Enviroment with a picture of a dead fish!!!!! This answered my question!!!!!!!!

Some glues you have to leave a day in a circulated area to dry out.
