Aquascape materials

[jrhorn44]

What epoxy, mortar, glue, etc are you using to aquascape? These Amazon reviews have me not trusting any product.

I just used superglue and accelerator:

I realized the trick was ensuring 3 points of contact between pieces and using long sticks (skewers) to smear the glue across the joints before a spritz of the accelerator to hold it in place. That and some patience.

Good luck.

I use acrylic rods and reef cement. I drill holes into the rocks and insert the acrylic rod which acts like re-barb, then seal together with reef cement. This will hold forever.

I went with BSI at the advice of another reefer.. mixed with crushed coral and mine is really solid.
