    Araldite Epoxy? Shrimp Safe?

    Hi guys!

    I would like to stick 2 rocks together, tried UHU super glue, cured it, soak it in water for a day and it fell apart.

    After searching on google, epoxy seems like a good alternative when fully cured. Since I have an araldite epoxy lying around at home, my question is, can I use it to join the rocks together? Would it be shrimp/fish safe?

    PS: My araldite epoxy is Araldite Rapid Steel

    Thanks!

    Are there any warning on the container?
    If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
    Don't walk behind me as I might not lead, don't walk in front of me as I might not follow. Walk beside me, as my friend.
    Mohamad Rohaizal is my name. If it's too hard, use BFG. I don't mind.

    Common epoxy used for aquarium are :
    - Alteco epoxy - http://reefbuilders.com/2012/05/07/a...poputty-epoxy/
    - Selley's Knead It underwater - http://www.horme.com.sg/product.aspx?id=1588

    Both available easily locally.
    I personally am using the Alteco one. No problem with my shrimp.
