Suitable glue for ornaments

#1
I'm in the process of modifying some aquarium ornaments, things like the moving bubbler ornaments and I'm after a suitable glue to use.

I was half way through the mods on the first one and noticed that 2 part Araldite has a warning label that it is toxic to fish :(

The plan is to add some LED illumination to some of the them but the best bit is to be a pair of IR timing beams and sensors so I can measure and display how fast the fish are swimming under an archway lol. Why? only because i can :)

So back to the question what are people using for repairing ornaments for use in fresh water aquariums?

I would suggest going to your LFS just because I didn't notice the name or brand of glue my LFS has. There's glue and epoxy you can use that are aquarium safe. I used epoxy to stick some rock formations together so my fish wouldn't knock them over and hurt themselves. When I went to buy.... I asked the guy there and he showed me two glues and an epoxy that were made just for aquariums.... so your best bet would to hit them up on that. *PEACE!*
