could you use silicone caulking? I agree with Dale, most tanks will not allow glue to adhere. you may be able to sand the surface and get one to stick for a little while, but not for long. maybe find a fitting with screw flanges and brass toggle bolts with a thick gasket between the tank and fitting?
