If you mean for glueing acrylic, the answer is no, you should use "acrylic solvent cement".
Clamp the joints well and squirt cement along the seam, it will flow into the joint. Sets in one hour.

WEST Products,,,You must be into boats..I am VERY familiar with the exact product you are describing,And I wouldn't even keep the stuff stored in the same room as my tank.That stuff is very toxic,and using it will most likly cause a disaster.You can use just plain old silicone to hold the refugium together.Aquarium grade would be best,but plain silicone will work...

your best bet is to go with clear silicone i went to a tank site and thats what they recommended the best because of its durability in water and non-toxicity
