I was wondering if epoxy resin is reef safe because I just started making it and it seems like a good material to use for frag racks or frags, is it reef safe?
 
Some epoxy resins are reef safe when they have been dried for 24 hours.
I have used and know that JB weld plastic weld is reef safe when it is dried for 24 hours.

I dry my epoxy for 72 hours, so hopefully it would be reef safe. Also one more question, would dye that you would use in it be reef safe or no. Does it depend on the dye?
