![]() There are two types of GE Silicone II one with an anti mold and mildew and one with out, actually I guess there is four types because you can get it both in clear and white... maybe even black but I haven't seen it so it doesn't count for me.

![]() Any silicone that is 100% silicone rubber ie; GE silicone 1 is safe for aquariums. The reason the people at Ge stated that it is not designed for building aquariums is likely because they don't want the liability of anyone flooding thier house. I'm not an expert, but I just did a pile of reaserch as I didn't want to pay $6 for a small tube at the LFS.

![]() Yup. GE SCS1200 is the same stuff they use to build aquariums. You can even adhere acrylic baffles to a glass aquarium when you're building a sump with this stuff.
