DIY eggcrate construction, appropriate reef-safe glue?

[Oldsalt01]

What type of reef-safe glue can I use to build an egg-crate media basket for my 14g AIO? Can't find anything commercial that seems to fit, so I figure what the heck, I'll do it myself.

Superglue...
...also works great on small cuts.

Yah, but it burns like the devil when you use it to close a cut (seemed like a good idea at the time)!!!!

burns like the devil

it does ?

BTT, I use crazy glue and zip-ties worked out great!

My eggcrate builds have all used zip ties.....no glue

Actually, zip ties make more sense so you can alter the size of the compartments......duh. Thanx folks!

Addendum: After wrestling the eggcrate around my garage while trying to cut it with a hacksaw blade I discovered that the easiest way to cut it is with side cutters (wire snips). It reduces the sawn particles and is much easier and safer and leaves a much cleaner cut. No saw blade cuts on my hand either!
