Is this stuff reef safe?

100% I use it all the time.

Loads cheaper then epoxy you buy at the LFS or online, and does the exact same thing.

yes sorry if that was a little vague I was in the middle of something. you are correct basically from mending rocks together to get a better Aquascape but people also use it to Mount Frags that are on plugs to the rocks as well. it's actually some handy stuff to have around

I used two sticks, rolled them up and pressed them around the lip of pvc pipe. Then I dabbed it with a filter sponge to give it some texture. Just to make it look less like PVC pipe.
