The normal 2 pack of glue and primer (sorry don't know the name) that any hardware store sells is fine. It's the same stuff they use in your house plumbing.

This is correct with one exception, the glue and primer MUST say "pottable water" on the packaging. There are a few types and to my knowledge only pottale water glue/primer can be used on tanks.

X2 good call, these are things I take for granted. Being a contractor sometimes I don't really even think about it.

You'll probably end up buying something like this:

Thanks again. I picked up the set. I went to a few stores looking for "Poted water" grade until i realized that it dosent say it in writting but it give the initals "PW" to convey the fact. So if someone is asking next time let them know to look for those initals. Thanks again everyone.
