Way harder to find, especially in the smaller tubes, and unless you're building a decent size tank, probably not worth the effort.

you're lucky! I always have trouble finding black. Last time Home Depot had it in GE II, so used that. LFS has small tubes af GE1200, but they charge about $25.
Large tubes of 1200 I can get direct from SeaStar aquariums.

The white and blue bottle of ge silicone II. I think its windows and doors...I can look on the bottle tomorow. I get mine from Rona for like $4-5 a tube and walmart sometimes has it in double packs for $6 I think it was. Can get clear, and black but its not stocked as often. Just gotta make sure its the mildew free one like you said, and let it cure till the viniger smell dissapears, about 24 hours the glass place told me. Every time iv gone to Rona they have it.
