Hi all, about to start my first dart viv build, anyone from the UK know of some viv safe expanding foam brands? Or should I just silicone the pieces of cork bark to the glass and stick on some coco fibre to finish. I've read so much conflicting info on expanding foam being safe, its confusing me.
Hopefully someone for the uk will chime in on this, but I have never had an issue with any brand of expanding foam that is sold in the states.
Of course, siliconing the cork directly to the glass is always a viable option.![]()

Thank you for the help everyone, I think I'll get some pond foam and seal well with silicone.
just remember to carve the foam first and also do it in stages if you can, the black foam i suggested does come with a nozzle to cap off the foam so it can be re-used (apparently, never figured out how to do it last time). so just add a little at a time.
also a great idea if you have any left over and a sheet of plastic etc laying around, spray on excess foam around a plant pot for cool little planters
