Default GE1200 Silicone in Calgary?

Does anyone know who is selling GE1200 silicone in Calgary these days?

I also understand that Silicone 1 is safe to use. Can you buy Silicone 1 at Rona or Home Depot?

Thanks,


Jim

Jim check out Canadian Tire. They have a silicone the states safe for aquarium use normally in stock. (Mastercraft brand I belive.)
I have used many tubes and it works great and is fairly cheap.

I went through this exercise a couple months ago too Jim, it's surprising how hard it is to find that.

Anyhow, GE1200, for absolute certain, you can get at Bow Valley/Interamerican for something like $10 per tube.

I remember also that "Able O-rings" was suggested to me as a source for GE1200.

I'll see if I can dig up the thread with all the suggestions that were made to me, and I'll post a link to it in here (for what it's worth .. in the hopes that it is somewhat helpful!)

Here is that other thread: http://www.canreef.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=20237

Apparently $8 per tube from Interamerican for the GE1200.

Good luck getting it from InterAmerican though. I've been short on the stuff for over three weeks now.

The Mitch strikes again!
