    I can't find a post right now about this but what kind of adhesive can I use that's safe to hold some PVC pieces together to create hiding places for QT? Thanks, Ann Marie
    BTW, a recent post wasn't necessarily what I needed answered

    It's unclear from your question, but if you're putting PVC tube together, PVC glue will work. Of course, let it dry before submerging.

    Thanks, sorry for the unclear question. I'm adhering small PVC tubes to make an artificial reef-type hiding place to put in QT so the new fish has a place to hide while in tank.

    Either the PVC glue or crazy glue will be fine.
    For a QT it really doesn't need to be very elaborate. You can just toss some lengths of tubing in there, that would do fine.
