Hi folks
Just to put my 2 cents worth in, 2 part epoxy should be fine BUT
soak the new work, and test the system with something expendable first
(gambusia, goldfish, guppies). Different brands and even different lots can
have different makeups, and you don't want to lose favourites. We've even
had losses from something leached from a food grade polystyrene foam box.
Paranoid, ain't I?
Cheers
