superglue is fine if you are in a pinch. just make sure its a reef safe type. (cyanoacrylate )

Just to specify, are you trying to glue the wier back or is the actual overflow box itself cracked with a leaking water issue? If it's the weir then yes. If its the box itself I wouldn't trust superglue with my floors personally. I would use silicone if you cant find acrylic glue. they make a kind for plastics and it sells at lowes and home depot: https://www.homedepot.com/p/GE-2-8-oz-Silicone-Sealant-GE-57/202038072
Full cure time is 12 hours though. How big of crack are we talking? If you are talking about some huge gaping crack that allows a lot of water leakage then I would advise differently.
