what to use instead of liquid nail

Ahh.. you mean the bond between the liner and the overflow tube?
I would suggest a flange on both sides and make a gasket of silicon between them. That way there is a little bit of flex and it's less likely to break ?

When you’re going through the side of a pond or such like it’s tempting to just cut a hole and push the pipe through but even with sealer it will eventually fail most times.

What you really should use is a tank connector. The tank connector has two flanges in and outside the tank which screw together through the hole. Along with a good silicone it will provide a sound and long lived seal.
