Haha! Why do you think I encourage mine to use her hair blow dryer daily?

Hi Christy

It sounds like you are having alot of fun. It is always exciting when comes to setting up a new tank.

For SpaFlex PVC I use Weld_On PVC 795 cement.
It is a clear cement made for gluing SpaFlex to SpaFlex or SpaFlex to rigid PVC. Always use primer first.

It is available at either Home Depot or Rona.

I went to Corix in Duncan, they have all their stuff accessible on shelves so if I don't know what a certain part I need is called, I don't have to act it out and draw a picture of it. I can just grab it out of a box

Oh I haven't been in there in awhile, the last time they made me feel like an idiot so I haven't been back.

This is what we used. Except we use the clear. At home depot and Rona they only have the grey. Southern Drip has the Clear in several different sizes.
