JB Weld

[ab0564]

Hey all- first time posting, but not a noob, yet not a master either. Been reefing 5 years.

I’ve read forums saying waterweld is safe, and also so is the original Jb weld(the kind with the two tubes you mix together)

However, what about these? I usually use seachem coralcrete, but everyone near me is out. And I have corals arriving tomorrow.

Does anyone have any knowledge on whether these Jb products are ok? I like them over waterweld bc they are gray.

Thanks all!

I really can't say. They are both 2 part epoxies, but reef safe??

This is better as its safe for potable water, and safe for fish ...(once cured)

Per JB Weld:
While J-B Weld is considered non-toxic when fully cured, for aquarium use, it's generally recommended to use their specific "WaterWeld" product as it is designed to be safe for submersion in water, making it the most suitable option for aquariums;

I personally wouldn't use anything other than WaterWeld from that line.

I would not use that steelstik. I believe it is impregnated with something metallic.
