I’ve used rubber bands in tanks many times over the years and while they’re safe enough, they don’t last very long.  They weaken and die quite quickly if they’re natural rubber.  Plastic ones stiffen and get brittle quickly.  I don’t plan on either type lasting much longer than about a month, tops.  

Have you tried these?  https://www.amazon.com/Standard-Silicone-Chemical-Resistant-Assorted/dp/B07J9KFJ4H
wonder if silicone would work better

I haven’t and I now have a supply of the black ones mentioned.  You know, in case I ever need them.  You never know when you might need a rubber band that’s water resistant, right?  😆
