Boggers Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 any super glue that is Cyanoacrylate is reef safe....never mind, read the post wrong. carry on. Quote Link to comment
This guy is extra salty Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Weld on 3 and 4 will cure within 24 hrs reef safe after 72hrs (If you still smell it, it isn’t cured) 1 Quote Link to comment

Clown79 Posted February 7, 2019 Author Share Posted February 7, 2019 I didn't break it. Lol. My media basket let go on one end. I guess just age did it? Quote Link to comment
This guy is extra salty Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Probably bad weld job because the glue is a solvent, basically welding the two pieces together Quote Link to comment

The one side split from the black part. Crazy glue didn't work. Right now being held with an elastic...gotta get glue and fix it cause I don't wanna spend $45 on a new basket. Quote Link to comment
This guy is extra salty Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Weld-on 3 or 4 will work just let it cure for 24-36 hours until you don’t smell the solvent anymore Quote Link to comment
