Bought this paint hoping it would be okay to repaint an aquarium decoration. I've looked on the site and can't find anything on there saying anything but saying its non toxic. Afraid to use unless i know its absolutely safe for my fish. Its Apple Barrel craft paint. Waterbased and non toxic.

heres a link to the MSDS http://msdsdigital.com/plaid-apple-barrel-craft-acrylic-paints-msds

The Ecological portion states
SECTION XII- ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
NO HARMFUL EFFECTS KNOWN OTHER THAN THOSE ASSOCIATED WITH SUSPENDED INERT SOLIDS IN WATER

CANADIAN WHMIS: THIS PRODUCT IS A CONTROLLED PRODUCT UNDER CANADA'S WORKPLACE HAZARDOUS MATERIALS INFORMATION SYSTEM. IT CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING TOXIC OR HIGHLY TOXIC MATERIALS:
ALUMINUM (likely safe in small quantities, but unknown)
FERRIC OXIDE (rust = safe)
MICA (Rock = safe)
PROPYLENE GLYCOL (quick search says safe)

Personally, I think you'd be ok to use it once the paint is fully cured.
