Good to know. Think sand would work with this adhesive? I knew there had to be something better than aquarium safe silicone. Thanks for the tip.
Yepp, you just have to wait at least 48 hours before adding to your tank though.
I use this PL stuff for almost everything. haha. I have sealed plugs in tanks, use this in my pond.. Just sealed the top of a 10 gallon for some crickets. Fixed an Aqua Clear with it....
They could sell to the newbie fish keepers who wouldn't even know what silicone to use, or the old ones who uncapable of making them, or even the lazy guy who doesn't want to take the time to make one..
silicone does work an stick because i did it many times... just have to do it right..
For what the other user was going, PL would work much better than silicone.
Silicone is harder to stick to PVC than the PL. I know, because I use PL for something almost every week. I am also sure that more people who are looking to do this may want to use sand type substrate, and not gravel, so PL again would be much better.
Not to boast... My fiance just made this in 5 minutes. I had some PL already opened.. so why not.

i was looking for real caves i have pvc and flower pots,but the sell a type of spray paint that i painted on the pvc pipe and it comes out looking like a rock with bumps and everything only thing is it comes off after months
If it comes off, it's coming off in your tank, and that can't be good.
Are you thinking of textured spray paint?
