adhesive question

[Mr Pleco]

Need to glue together my canister filter intakes ( FX5 and XP4's) .
What superglue can I use that is safe and will hold up underwater..?

Any experience firsthand with this product in aquariums?

I've used it to attach java moss to driftwood and rocks, worked good. Why are you gkueing intakes together?

Just about any cyanoacrylate glue (super glue) the clear kind. It is safe I have used it hundreds of times mainly for coral fragging. But it will not hurt your fish.

Thank you for the replies, the main issue I'm having esp with the Rena XP4 intakes is the fish seem to take the intake tubes aparts no matter how well I think I hid them.(then the pumps run dry). The FX 5 I have an issue with the bottom half of the intake strainer being knocked off....

I have the same problem with the fx5 intake strainer, wish they would have made it a 1 piece part.

Got it, I thought you were glueing the fx5 intake to a xp4 intake.
