Flourish Glue - Pflanzenkleber

No one likes a floater, certainly not a serious aquaristscaper like moi, oh no no no, that wont do! I set up a new aquascape recently, using co2, tropica plant substrate etc, a massive java fern, 8 various anubias varieties from small to massive, water sprites, crypts, rotalas and a few more other plants and all was well until i did my first big water change, nearly all my plants floated to the top, and after occurring the day after and the day after that, i decided to glue ALL my plants, not just the java ferns and anubias plants, which were fine as they were glued onto a huge piece of bogwood, but my rotalas have barely any roots yet, and the crypts just wanted to dance along the bottom of the tank, so i found small dark stones to match the substrate and glued 4 or 5 stems of rotala to one stone, and bingo, i repeated this several times with about 25 rotala stems and planted them all together in a big group, the same with the crypts and other plants. I am sure they will root now that they are more stable in the substrate, now all i need to do is buy several pots of monte carlo and split the pots in maybe 2 or 3 so the plants root more quickly. On the whole, this glue is alright, it does dry white but not a problem when using epiphytes on wood or rocks as you only need a small amount of glue, the plants will dig in soon enough, so top marks for this product, certainly helped make my tank look much better than it did at first, awesome =)

Ideal. Does what iit says.

Genius stuff, sticks a treat. I have used it to aquascape and now have wood and stones with plants attached which looks cool in my opinion. Yes the purest scapers out there will be appalled at this 'scaping cheat' but who cares, its great for beginners like me. Only downside is it dries WHITE so be careful with placement or you will get ugly white blobs in tank. Not a problem with moss etc as this will grow over it in time and you wont see the white. Have attached anubias, java fern, crips and moss and they are looking great. Have also stuck stones to others when making hardscaping slate caves etc. Easy to use, I did stick my fingers together at one point but that just adds to the fun, right? (seriously it came off easily enough under warm water)

I normally use cotton thread or thin fishing line. This product helps in those hard to tie areas so that’s a big plus point. This is also good if your attaching moss to anything, rocks and wood. A few things which I don’t like is that you can see whiteness where the glue was used. This would eventually get grown over but until then it looks odd and it’s unsightly. I would recommend this product and this seller. This cuts down a lot of time in attaching plants to your projects.

Bought for a broke aquarium ornament - quick to bond, very secure and strong adhesive but use only small amounts - any excess will remain tacky so cover with plants or sand/gravel. Trusted brand, reliable and safe to use. Excellent prices from this seller and fast delivery. Thank you! Seachem products are the best on the market, highly recommend this brand.

Not a great product

A bit difficult when using to secure spider wood together, but does the job. Works incredibly when securing plants. Just a message for others who may be new to using this product, it is water-activated.

I used this product to attach Anubis mini and weeping moss to rock and wooden roots in my aquascape , also used it to glue some roots together to make a structure . Bonded really well , everything is still in place and it's not affected the plants in any way . Brilliant product for aquascaping and totally fish friendly . I highly recommend this product .

I watched the videos provided by the company on how to use it. I would HIGHLY suggest doing this out of water as some reviews said it ruined their physical tank and after using it, I can see that happening. Also use it on something you don't care about because if the glue is on it, it's so hard to get off. I did make the mistake of thinking that if the physical gel does not touch me, I'm good. That is most definitely not the case. I applied the glue on some stones and I guess my fingers were near the water run off and so my fingers were glued very well onto the stone. Thankfully it came off without it being too painful. Just left a lot of glue for the next two days. Also, aim true. It does set white so place it in a spot that's not noticeable. They said add a little but every time I did, my fish in the fish tank would rip it out. Shrimp tank however, would be fine. I did put it in my shrimp tank within an half an hour after gluing. They are all thriving. No negative effects in the environment. It actually promote growth in the plants so that's pretty awesome. For stone structures, I do recommend having it cure out of water as I had to redo mine a few times. It was a pretty heavy stone balancing on a couple of much smaller pointed stones. Again, my shrimps love their new home. Hide in there all the time.

Don't buy

Wir haben unsere Deko mit Tillandsien nur mithilfe dieses Klebers fertigstellen können. Allerdings dauerte es einige Zeit, bis wir dahinter kamen, warum die Wurzel trotz etlicher Versuche weder auf Kunststoff noch auf Holz halten wollte! Man muss beide Seiten mit einem Klecks Kleb versehen, aneinanderdrücken und dann die Klebstelle .....mit Wasser besprühen! Erst wenn der Klebstoff mit Feuchtigkeit in Berührung kommt, hält er endlich und das wirklich gut. Wäre vielleicht einen Hinweis wert gewesen, da ich das ganze schon enttäuscht zurückschicken wollte und dann die Lösung auf Youtube fand, auf einem Bastel-Video! Also lieber Hersteller, bitte mit den dringend notwendigen Infos versehen. Sonst alles gut:)

I have to admit, I was scared to use this after reading the other reviews. I’m usually one of those people that ends up with glue on everything. I avoid crafting. I had terrible images of the fish getting the glue on them, or accidentally gluing their mouths shut if they picked at the plants. I decided to carefully go ahead with this glue anyway. Preparation is key! Set up everything you want to do beforehand. I opened the tube of glue, and some did come out, but not a lot. I didn’t want to put the plastic applicator back on with some of the glue already coming out, so I just used it straight out of the tube. I dipped the bottom of the plant in the glue and stuck it right on the driftwood. You don’t even have to hold it down, once the glue is wet, it already hardens. It worked really fast, and dried so quick, the fish couldn’t get into it, lol. I had read that other users tried the glue on non- organic material, without any success. I want to overhaul my tank with new decorations, starting with a river made from sea glass. When I applied the glue to the glass, it just stayed wet and wouldn’t firm up, so I ran it under water since the water is the activator. That did the trick. If the water is too high in pressure, the glue will spread, so you just need to dip it in water and it will start to harden. It does turn white, so plan where you will put everything to hide the adhesive side. Thankfully, no fish were injured in this attempt, and I’m glad I bought this stuff! I can’t wait to finish redecorating my tank :). Update to my review: My fish pulled a few of the plants back off, so I had to wedge them into the driftwood as well as glue them. So far, it has worked. The sea glass river turned out really well. The fish picked at the glue a little bit, but they are fine. I’m sooo happy I bought this stuff, it was a real game changer. I’m in love with my tank again :).

Great Product delivered on time.
