i used regular super glue and my fish are fine, just let it dry for a long time

LOL, Super Glue in a fish tank !? LOL Maybe it's safe when dried really well, but I think I'd be afraid to use it on objects that go inside my tank. I'd rather use aquarium silicone.

super glue does have some crazy stuff in it, but i'm glad it's not affected your fish lilsoccakid.

You should go with aquarium silicone.I think it's safe for your fish.

Sabi

I think aquarium silicone or any silicone that is generally used for aquariums would be good. However i also used super glue, cant say it affected the fish.

i used it on my bubble wall to keep bubbles from going out of certain parts, and it seems fine, but not planning on doing that again!

It affects me sometimes, if I'm painting and I breathe some in... woah. Once I forgot how to walk down stairs for a few seconds, it's really weird; and if you get it on your skin, you feel very dizzy the next morning like it's gone through your skin Cyanocrylate, nasty stuff.

yea, that's what people sniff it for.. that "i just finished a model airplane in 1 sitting" feeling. :
