PicoSavvy Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 So any of you guys ever seen a glass container/ tank that uses epoxy instead of silicone to hold the panels of glass together Quote Link to comment
Tamberav Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Not for fish I haven't...for decorative things I could see it being used like a planter or vase. Maybe it wasn't originally intended for fish? Quote Link to comment
Tired Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Epoxy should be inert, so that's fine. But I question why you don't see more tanks with epoxy if it actually works. I'd be suspicious it might not be strong enough, long-term. Quote Link to comment

Maybe it wasn't originally intended for fish? I have no idea what it was intended for but I am guessing your right tho and it may be a vase. Quote Link to comment
PicoSavvy Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share Posted May 5, 2020 Right now it feels stronger than a normal silicone joint but yea it may weaken over time. Just curious if anyone else seen something similar in the reefing world Quote Link to comment
