MVPaquatics Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 been wondering myself...only way to know is to test. seems many have "tried" it. I wanna bet it is ok. Some make skimmers go crazier than others. I dont like the fact that they have an amine curing agent. This is probably why they say they are non-toxic when cured, which leads me to believe there maybe a little funky chemistry going on with ammonia in there at first. But they also say it is safe for potable water which usually means ok for fish. They do say it is chemically resistant to aqueous salt solutions. Here are some datasheets: aquamend: http://www.nationwidecoatings.com/PDF-Work/Datasheets/Nationwide/9700%20Datasheet%20-%20MSDS.pdf Mighty Putty: http://www.itwconsumer.com/productfiles/msds_243.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
