Adhesive for enclosure?

[Danielwo]

Have new lids for my exoterra 18x18 wand to use additional adhesive to hold the glass in. Any thoughts on Goop marine adhesive? I know I just can't use any kind.

Why glass?

You’re using glass then use aquarium sealant or something. I’d think plexiglass is easier to use and seal .

Broke something? Exos are quite sturdy, there is no need to reinforce them.

Like @Ultum4Spiderz mentioned, aquarium sealant/silicone it's your best option imo.

Some of my Ts have been getting stuck in the screen top so I found a place that makes replacement tops and for the 18 x18 they recommend using glass. There are clips but wanted to add a little more.

And the ventilation? Using non perforated glass will block all the upward air movement, making the low ventilation pretty much useless.

Better to get a perforated acrylic/plexi or aluminium sheet than the glass.

This is a new lid with ventilation in top sides the class just fits in between them. They are ment for exoterras with tarantulas

I use silicone to secure all DIY lids, both glass or acrylic, when modifying the ventilation.

Tinkerframe? Use aquarium safe silicone. Anyway keep the T it on the drier side, since ventilation will be greatly reduced.
