First off not a reef question but i love the website Great people on here!

So I had a old pre Drilled 110 tub hanging around and decided to fill it for some baby koi Im getting on Tuesday and the treads on the gasket were a bit chewed up and it was leaking. I didn't have tape on me the other day so i used Gasoila Soft-Set on it and it stopped the leak been holding for 3 days now. I just noticed yesterday and confirmed it today that the water has a slight blue hint to it! From looking online it says Its NSF and can be used on drinking water but idk im still unsure has anyone used this on a tank before?

Threads on the inside of the fitting? I know they exist but I think everything I have has the threads on the outside which is usually not water contact and slip on the inside.

Yes threads are on the inside It's meant for hooking a hose to it.
