Mushrooms

[peytonquillen21]

Would It be okay if I used gorilla glue to mount some mushrooms onto a large piece of LR in my tank??Its says waterproof on the bottle and how would i go about doing this?? The mushrooms are attached to a small piece of rubble and my snails keep knocking them over!!!:furious:Hahaha Thanks with all your help ​

I don't know. The standard is Super Glue aka Cyanoacrylate.

Glue

Lock tight is perfectly safe

With the superglue gel simply try to dry the rock and the piece of rubble as best you can and glue together only takes a couple of minutes to set.

So take my rock out of my tank for a few hours and get it dry then put the super glue glue on the piece of rubble that my mushrooms is attached to and stick in on to my piece of rock and let it dry for a few minutes:spin1:

No need to take the rock out of your tank. Take the mushroom/rubble rock, dry off the rubble rock a bit. Apply superglue. And put it on the rock and hold for 30 seconds and should stay on. You might get some die off from the LR if you have it out too long.

I am sorry, I was not more clear. Just blot the areas dry with some paper towels or something.

I also recommend Aquastik epoxy. If the rubble that the shroom is attached to is big enough you can attach that to a rock with this putty.It even hardens underwater.

I don't know about gorilla glue. Don't know if its toxic or not. I would take the proven safe route and use super glue gel.
