I am setting up my viv and was wondering what sealant is safe for corn snakes (adults & hatchlings)
Can anyone help me?
Thanks |

| thought so due to the lack of toxens in the sealant as all fish tank sealant are all tested for marine setups that are extremely detremental and 1 wrong thing and u could loose thousands of pounds worth of fish, i know all of this due to the fact that i kept fish for several yrs |

As said,aquarium sealant is the best.
It still gives off some fumes though at first so give it plenty of time to cure before adding your snake to the viv. |

| i always advise on giving it 24hrs after the recommended time, just to be safe, i also used to build custom fish tanks for people. |

From recollection it's the anti-moulding chemical in all other sealants that cause the problems with reps, hence why fishy tank sealant is the one that should be used.
Plus fishy tank sealant is a LOT stronger than any other sealant I know of. |
