Epoxy in the water?
I dont know anything about this stuff so that is why I ask..
Can you use that epoxy stuff under water? I have some candycanes that keep falling over and I want to "glue" then to the rocks or to some kinda base or shell. Can it be done like this or is there another way? |

Tracy,
As long as you epoxy is free of Amonia, you could use it. That's what I've read a lot in the forums. Regards |

The epoxy putties can be used underwater. I would however, recommend doing this outside of the tank. Also, it does not work very well as a glue (as in glueing 2 flat pieces together), but it works as cement where it will mold around an object and once it harderns will hold it in place.
