Question natural rocks

I want to use natural rocks in my BP enclosure and I don't want to endanger her (obviously) so I was wondering what I should use to glue the rocks together so that they won't shift/fall as she climbs on them. Are there any products which are potentially harmful/toxic?
thanks!

Yup, I bought a smallish tube at petsmart for 5.99. Just make sure that you follow the directions for curing on the package. Good luck.

I'd go to the local hardware store, if money is tight, get GE silicone or any other 100% silicone sealant. I"m a big supporter of Pet stores but this is one thing that I'd get elsewhere, it's the same product and you can get twice as much for half the price! I'm getting a normal sized caulking tube for about three bucks at Timbermart

Make sure it aquarium safe silicone. If it is not, then it will offgas ammonia. Some of the GE 100% brands will offgas silicone as well. I bought a big tube of silicone (forget the brand, was a white and aqua tube) at Home Hardware for $3.99
