I used "All-Glass Aquarium Silicone". Brand name is All Glass. I picked it up at Red Coral, pretty sure they had a few tubes left. I know that there are some other options from GE and a few other brands. Im pretty sure you can find the info of different types that people have used on here. I liked this stuff, worked fine.

you know, I've used All kinda of Silicone. My present overflow is siliconed in with Permatex RTV black from Lordco. No ill effects or nothing.

So close to filling the tank, just having to wait for some help lifting the tank onto the stand. Only 4 more feet... all this and im sidelined by a height less than me (Not much less i'll add). Oh well, Pretty happy with how the plumbing worked out. The gate valves make the plumbing look like it was designed for a tank volume 10 times the size I have, which I enjoy greatly. hmm excited about gate valves, not good. I got the bulkheads screwed in there pretty good, didnt want to run the risk of cracking the glass. Theres some good compression on the rubber gaskets, figured thats what I was looking for.

Thanks for the offer, got er up there this morning. Going to plumb it up this afternoon and get some H2O. Seems bigger than my other 90g for some reason.
