Outworld grout question
Based on other posts on the forums it seems you don't want to use premixed grout, but I'm wondering which is better between sanded and unsanded for the floor of an outworld. I watched the outworld tutorial but the bag of grout wasn't in frame enough to see which kind it was
Re: Outworld grout question
I do not believe it matters since it is not used for digging/water absorption. I believe sanded is cheaper so I will be using that.
With all the things ants can do, you wonder, who rules the planet

No the polymer means polymer blend is just the cement with the bonding agent. No the crystalline silica is harmful to humans( if we breathe it in) not to Ants.

Re: Outworld grout question
Another question, i have two kinds of caulking here, waterproof 100% silicone, and 'kwik seal kitchen & bath adhesive caulk'.
Is at least one of these safe to use for attaching tubes and whatnot to the outworld and maybe glueing down the observation glass top of the hybrid nest?

I use an aquarium safe silicone. Bought at my local hardware store.
