GR 2 part epoxy should work. Kind of pricey ($25+) where I picked it up. Cures to a kind of yellowish color though. There is some in your bubble counter where the small acrylic tube is glued to the PVC JG fitting.

weldon 16 I believe is made for joining acrylic to dissimular plastics.
here is a rundown of a few Weldon products "WELDON #3 Non-Flammable. Water-thin, very fast set, solvent type for acrylics. Will also bond other plastics such as styrene, butyrate and polycarbonate to themselves. WELDON # 16 Fast drying, high strength, bodied. Bonds acrylics to itself. Also for styrene, butyrate, polycarbonate and other plastics and porous surfaces. WELDON # 10 (WHITE OR GREY IN COLOUR) 2-Part, high strength structural adhesive. High viscosity. Bonds PVC, acrylics, styrene, ABS, polycarbonates to steel, aluminium, etc. WELDON # 40 A 2-Part reactive, high strength structural adhesive." Steve

The guy at Industrial Plastics and Paints is fairly clever. They have both products on the shelf.
