is hot glue ok in tank??

[ggmarieg]

Does anyone know if hot glue used to glue flower pots together is ok in a tank???

why not just use silicone?

Im sure something in the glue has the possibility of being toxic

I have never tried hot glue and never will probably because I am paranoid of the effects. I was thinking aquarium silicon sealant as well.

I've heard several people have used hot glue to no ill effects...

i use hot glue, no ill effects.

Hot glue is pretty much a low temp melting plastic. It should be as safe as any other plastic of unknwon origins. At coolish temps underwater nothing "should" happen. That being said if you can wait the curing time out, silicon is probably the better way to go.

I have used it. Still doesn't mean it is safe.

I have used it with no problems (thus far... mwa ha ha)
