ok, im gonna need alot to put my acros back in the tank, so this will be a repeat of the one i did a while back. havent checked on the prices lately, but they should be close to the same - ill send an email today and fix them if they have changed. i need to make this order by next wednesday to make sure i get it in time to use it on the 21st.


ok, this stuff is the best i have found for glueing frags, and runs $4.48 + tax a tube at Lowe's - dont forget, this is the big 10 gram tube.

we can order directly from a wholesaler for the company for less, so i wanted to see if anyone was interested in a group order.

we have to order in whole cases - 6 tubes to a case

here is the price breakdown for the quantities

<72 tubes - $3.70 a tube + shipping
72 - 216 tubes - $3.17 a tube + shipping
222 or more - $3.17 a tube but no shipping charges.


running total: 222 (37 cases) - $703.74 + shipping

Have you checked at a local hobby store for CA glue? A 2 ounce bottle should be about $7.00.

The radio control hobbyists use it extensively for building model airplanes. What we call super glue gel is known by them as Thick CA.

10 grams = .35 ounces

Maybe look at this:

i tried some from a hobby shop that was a 2 ounce bottle and it took much longer to harden under water and it was not nearly as strong when it did. i have tried so many types of glue it is rediculous, and that loctite gel is the best i have used.

Baking soda will make cyanoacrylate glue set instantly. It doesnt have to be dry either a slurry will work too.
