Aquarium safe silicone?

[viperfish]

Home Hardware sells thier store brand silicone which has "Aquarium Safe" written in bold letters right on the label.

If you have a Rona there they carry aquarium safe silicone.

GE door and window #1 is 100% silicone and aquarium safe. Available pretty much anywhere and runs for about $4 per tube.

make sure it doesn't say "mildew resistant" on it!!

Are you just redoing the large seams or the structural inner seams?

If it's all the seams, I'd use a stronger product - GE RTV108 is what was recommended to me. You probably won't find it at HD or a local hardware store, but Acklands-Grainger should have it (there are 5 locations in Calgary).

Thanks for the info everyone.

I am only re attaching a black insert that is fixed to the back wall inside the tank (and creating a seal between it and the overflow) so I think regular silicone should be fine.
