I don't think you need to worry about the black trim on top. Just the corner seams and the bottom panel seams.

Did this on a 33g, (just cut the exposed silicone, not disassemble) just put in a new bead. Figured with the old silicone cleaned off wasn't like the very thin joint remaining would cause much problem with the new silicone bonding to the glass.
Then again this was a rectangle tank I had in a unfinished basement soaking LR for a few months, not a Bow on the main floor.
