Sticking things to glass

What should I use to stick PVC ends to the glass sides of my tank? I currently have two-sided tape but it is starting to fall.

quick responses please!!

water based silicone might work well, but it will need 24 hours to cure.

I use this stuff called Goop, on plastic and acrylic, I dont know how it would work on glass...but it needs 24 hours to cure too.

There honestly is no method you can use that will not require some time to set and cure. So I guess you are looking at a 24 hour window of time if you use any adhesives...On the flip side though, is that they will hold very well once they cure.

See if some of the more seasoned GTP owners chime in with ideas.

I use epoxy. Once again a 24 hour cure, but I'll let it sit 48-72 hours before introducing to the snake room.
