Just tore apart and resealed a tank last evening, a 20 gal.

If the glass pieces are now of structure and make up a solid tank just do this:

Grab a razor blade and run along the glass both pains to cut out the silicone that is not directly in the joint. Make sure everything is nice and clean. Next tape with something like painters tape/masking tape. Throw an even bead of silicone and then use your finger. If you want to use a bead tool make sure it won't scratch the glass. Not really sure why it didn't work out as the ambient room temp will not cause a problem as long as YOUR QUICK.
