Anyone know definitively if this is or isn’t safe for a reef tank? I want it on the bottom of my bare-bottom tank. I would leave an expansion gap of course. It is “Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic “

Thanks

I would think the fiberglass bonding agent would be bad and leach chemicals, but it’s just a thought.

Google just tells me a bunch of custom tanks are constructed out of RFP. So not sure
