Fibreglass is 100% safe once it's properly cured.

I would qualify what Haro said with a bit of clarification... Fiberglass when mixed with an epoxy or resin to patch holes is safe because the glass fibers are contained. However you should NEVER use something like fiberglass furnace filters for your pond filtration, because the glass fibers will get broken over time and possibly be eaten by your fish.

I know this doesn't apply to the original question, I just wanted to head off any problems down the road if someone comes through searching for fiberglass...
