ken, I don't think any of the glue is aquarium specific. Just get some pvc glue and cleaner and you should be fine. Just make sure to not use an excessive amount, and keep a damp washcloth handy to clean up any extra that leaks out of the seam when you push them together. As long as you let the glue dry, it shouldn't hurt your fish bro. I've never had a single problem from this, and havn't heard of anyone having problems with it either.

quite simply all PVC Glue and cleaner is lethal in it's liquid form. Hence the warning to use it in a well ventilated area. if you're using it in your tank, make sure it is 100% dry. the container will give you a strict guide on drying periods and use. Follow it and everything will be fine.

When the glue is 100% dry it'll be harder then the PVC it's self, and have 0 tackyness.
