BAT Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Nerms, i am trying to recreate these driftwood bonsai at home (see pic). I was wondering if the brown that attaches the smaller driftwood to the main driftwood is this kwikwood (see pic)? Any ideas? Is the Kwakwood aquarium safe?

Biotope Biologist Posted March 20, 2022 Share Posted March 20, 2022 Appears to be the same ingredients as waterweld minus the titanium oxide. I looked on their official website at chemical composition and weight. JB waterweld is frequently used in the reef hobby to create live rock caves. I wouldn’t be able to ID whether that’s kwikwood or not though as I haven’t used the product. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreaW Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) J-B WaterWeld says it is safe for "Potable tanks" which is what you want to look for. That means it's meant to be underwater and won't leach out anything into your water. However, it's off-white and will work on hard wood, but not soft woods. There are some specific aquarium putties that are colored you can find, but I haven't used them. (I've used WaterWeld.) ETA: There are aquatic epoxy sticks that come in different colors, and if it's smaller pieces that aren't that heavy, you might be able to use the gel superglue but it also dries white so you would need to keep it tidy.
