This isn't a very fun one but.... what type of glue will be safe to use in the tank??? I am trying to mount a magnetic powerhead holder with my seio pumps...if I am not mistaken, you have to glue the magnet to the bracket to get it to stay?

Thanks in advance,
Jeff

super-glue works great for stuff like that. I would recommend the gel type though, its a little easier to use plus you can mount coral frags with it.

Thanks lvpd186. I have used super-glue brand before but didn't know if there was anything else. That will have to do.

You can also epoxy it. Aquastick brand comes to mind.

I would stick with superglue.

im confused about glue talk. I know its standard practice. Just always seemed like superglue or epoxy would be toxic for the tank?

makes my skimmer go nuts, no ill effects on the tank inhabitants. I use Loctite Super Glue Gel, and will continue to use, as it's proven success for me....
