Safe glue for aquarium decorations

What kinds of glue have you guys used and been successful with for aquarium decor? We're trying to glue some air tubing inside a decoration, we used hot glue but it keeps coming apart after a couple weeks. Has anyone used superglue? If so is there a better brand or one that's safe for aquariums? I have flourish glue but I don't think it will be strong enough to hold it in place.

Superglue is regularly used in aquariums. You can also use silicone.

I think Flourish glue is the same as Superglue (cyanoacrylate based). It should do the job.

Flourish glue
I just used this and it stuck on my fingers. Any ideas on how to safely remove from skin?

Not sure, you could try some nail polish remover or acetone. It will flake off your skin naturally within a day or two.
