Default Gorilla glue

Does anyone know if this stuff is safe to use and if it works?

i don't know how safe it is in a tank, but i have used it in woodworking and i've even used it on a pair of shoes. whatever you do, don't get it on your hands. that stuff is cray strong, definitely gorrilla strength. also you have to be careful when you use it b/c it expands as it sets up.

If it has the same bonding agent as crazy glue it should be fine.
Now dont quote me on this but i believe its cyanoacrylate

Kabong is correct. As long as the main active ingredient is Cyanoacrylate, you will be fine.

Gorilla glue is a polyureathane glue. Once it has cured it is non-toxic . It is excellent for woodworking but has to be applied in the manner suggested by the manufacturer. What do you plan on using it for?

Apparently it has a 2 - 3 hour cure time so IMO it wouldn't be any good for mounting frags.
Now if your building a stand then it would be great!!
