can i glue coral to my fish tank while handling the pieces underwater?

I would say no because I have used water to thin this glue down. It is also easy clean up with water. I think the water would just infiltrate the glue. Also I would say it would not be the right type glue for underwater items.

Not if you glued them carefully. A coat of Matt medium or acrylic varnish is good for waterproofing

The strip is sealed. The connector is not. I think they would be fine as long as the ends, especially the end with the connector is above water. You might be able to seal the end with non corrosive RTV. You could try it in a bucket of slightly salty water before putting in your aquarium. These are very bright. The fish might get a tan if you use more than a foot or two.

One can should do it. Make sure the tank is cleaned properly so this can adhere.

Yes. I run all of mine flat across the middle of the bottom and cover it with sand or gravel. That gives the most even temperature in the aquarium. Although i would get a hard plastic one instead of glass due to turtles digging and chance of breaking the glass. If it says submersible it can be horizontal. .

Before you glue the seashells make sure you really like the way its designed. If you want to glue permanently, try the heated glue stick, using the very minimum amount of glue. you can try a clear glue that is sensitive to a paper/and or plastic material. Good luck

You do not need glue, for most applications you could use Duct tape or gorilla tape to seal the sections together without having to glue them. This would then allow you to reuse, recut the pieces again in the future or sell the port if you ever wish to get rid of it or modify it. I say this because i used 2 6" PSP ports with my 18 on 1500 rms, and it never once leaked and the air was tight and fluent. Plus, other people in the SPL world have done the same with the same results. Furthermore, if your dead set on glue, you can use PVC cement or something like loctite epoxy. i mean even super glue would work. The PSI pressure these pieces will endure is vastly lower than the need to literally "bind" them. Hope this helps.

If the fishtank is Plexiglas you could weld the pieces together. But that part won't be clear. Is the area with the break a part that you would want to see through?

I would say yes, as long as it's not submerged for long periods of time. This is by far one of the most durable glues I have ever purchased. Be careful not to get it on anything you don't want ruined! I would say its for sure water resistant, but over time not sure if it could be considered water proof. This is a type II adhesive which means its good for repeated wet dry cycles. A type I is for waterproofing. For marine applications check out jonestown distributors products.

i used Elmers wood glue. it was non-toxic which i needed because it was for a reptile enclosure. you can use what kind you feel is best. i also used little screws for little extra support. one on each end and one in middle. just have to judge what works best for you.

Probably. I've caught snakes and lizards in it. If you catch something you want to set free pour cooking or olive oil over it ( I use used oil) and it will release the glue. It ruins the trap but frees whatever. I've done this with a few snakes I wanted to keep around for pest control.

Absolutely. I glue rubber protective feet to my art pieces that are made from metal. Just make sure to wipe both parts off with a bit of rubbing alcohol first to make sure they are clean. The tube opening is a bit large for delicate work, so I use a scrap of waxed paper to squeeze out some goop then apply to my item with a toothpick. Hope this helps.

what I do is I use glue gun to seal up the gaps and you can use it underwater at very deep for a loonng time w/o having to worry about water getting in through the O-ring seal

Would say yes to this question, but make sure your glue lines are kept to a minimum and wait for it to completely dry.

You can do it without it, glue is optional. But some parts stay a bit better if you use some.

Yes, but... the glue is water based. You should use alkyd base paints only.
