when you want to put stuff together for making toys can you use glue or hot glue to glue stuff together? What do you guys do to hold it together? I have lots of popsicle sticks and craft supplies I could make things out of but I have been worried about what is safe for the crabs.

I know some people use hot glue but others are against it. I think the most accepted adhesive is aquarium sealent. Also, I would be careful with the popsicle sticks. Many people have complained that they mold easily in the tank.

The one time I used glue, it kind of melted all over and I had to throw the cardboard hut away. Cardboard huts get soggy too easily, too.
