darkangel Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Use silicone, or drill holes through the slate and use stainless steel screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 I've used Gorilla Glue - just make sure you let the glue cure at least 24hrs before putting it in your tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shmeg Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I had some left over from renovating the bathroom and used 12x12 pieces which were bought from either Rona or Home Depot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see you have found your solution, but just out of interest.. would frag glue work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brp4e Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 If you're going to use silicon, make sure that its GE I or II and that it is 100% silicon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
