I figured it was a brand name. I'll check Advanced Auto Parts or Home Depot, whichever I get to first. Clear silicone would look better, I think.

Any pet store. Wait 3-4 days before re-introduction.

You know, one reason I grabbed the Liquid Nails (aside from the smaller tube) was that it said it's safe for fishtanks right on the package. Guess the fish don't mind the smell.

Home Depot will probably have GE Silicone II in squeeze tubes. It's a quality product.


Wait a second, did you buy liquid nails _construction_adhesive_ or some other product under the liquid nails brand name? If they have a silicone, you might be fine using it - I only have experience with liquid nails constuction adhesive and their underlayment adhesives, if they make a silicone, I've never used it, so no specific comments regarding it.

Package says Liquid Nails Clear Seal All-Purpose Sealant. It's not going to work, the stuff reeks.
Since this seems to be an area of expertise for you, I'll go with one of the products you recommended. Thanks for the tips.

This one?

Never used it and I don't know anything about it.

It might be fine. I just don't know.



No expert here on the other ones, just many years using them...

Yeah, that's the stuff. Just noticed it says *not* for use in aquariums (insert facepalm smiley here).

I just ordered a round container of heartfelt beads tonight. I'm running into the same problems as you Kreth, desktop is struggling at 57 to 60% RH. and its full plus the new cigar caddy is full as well.

So tell me why I've been looking into buying my first box?

I'll be coming back to read this thread when its time to setup my first coolador.
