Default Diy acrylic pot

I have some leftover scrap acrylic pieces from my aquarium hobby. Here are couple pics of square clear pot almost 6" wide and 5.5" deep.

It's a nice looking pot. Have you used that glue before, and do you know if it will hold up to water and fertilizers?

Nicely done and very attractive. Is this a display "pot" or will it be the actual home for a plant? If an actual home for a plant, will you drill only the bottom or also on the sides? I hope you'll show this to us again when it's in use.
