    I have always use the DAP brand 100% silicone. gorilla glue works just fine, but yes it does expand, so be prepaired.

    Silicone 1 has stronger chemical smell than 2. I have read more opionions other drend that they've used 2 for years. When I searched I found stories both ways.

    If 2 has less chem smell it could be the way to go because 1 really takes some time for the smell to go away.

    Hi can I use a silicone while my frogs are in the enclosure or do they all emit poisonous fumes?
    Thanks

    You must remove them and the smell will take quite some time to go away which mean a wait to get them back in. days and depending how much silicone it could be weeks.
    Its a pretty strong smell.
