 |
|
| If i were to put dabs of hot glue on a ramp, for grip, for my red eared slider, let the glue dry then submerse it, would the glue peel off or would my turtle try to eat it? The other question is would my turtle die if he ate the glue? |

I used hot glue to attach the air bubbler under the fake log. It had been there for about two or three years with no problems to the fish or the turtles, as for the peeling, it depends on how you attach it, I would suggest making small holes on the ramp and start with squeezing the trigger into the hole first before you make your glue drop, that way the glue will attach without there being a chance of the glue coming off.

| Or you could just buy some aquarium silicone sealant and not worry at all. |
