Instant Ocean Holdfast

Does anyone know the strength of this? I have a piece of LR kind of fan shaped and curved that I want to bond to another piece. Tank has corals so can't take rocks out to drill. About 4lbs total with 3 lbs on top arch.

I couldn't see that being an issue. as the underwater epoxy is very strong once cured. Be sure to keep it absolutely still while it cures for best results. They sell the same underwater epoxy at lowes for less than half the price of the IO stuff. It's made for leaky pipes that carry drinking water, so it's also reef safe, FYI.
