      Use test pieces first so you get a feelling for the solvent/glue and the time it takes to bond. If you glueing with water in your sump I would suggest silcone. The weld-on products are toxic and you don't want that in your tank water. They are water thin becareful getting it on your skin, they are strong solvents and make sure your in a well ventilated area.
      Safety first.

      Pet Kingdom also has acrylic cement in their case. I also would recommend silicone in a sump. Neatness lies in the application of both products.
