I am on my way out to the fish store but I'll go to the one on Kingsawy first. Boxing day sale is still on at this place and I am hoping to find the Silicone there and a bucket or two of IO salt that's selling for $29.99 right now I'll go to J$L if I can't find aquarium silicone at this other store. Oh, and I need black silicone.

Thanks for posting that info

If anyone is paying the extra money for the All Glass Aquarium brand of silicone I might be able to sell them a bridge also!

Ya, 15 bucks is a lot to pay for a $5 tube of silicone. Especially if it's not black

I think that I'll try to get this one. Pretty pricey for such small amount.

I recently did some silicone work in a tank and got it from Home Hardware, 6.29 a tube. It is called Weather Shield, 35 year durability, and says right on the tube Safe for Aquariums.

Solutions are easy. The real difficulty lies in discovering the problem.

As both Brad and Unclesalty mentioned, GE SCS1200 is a safe and very good choice. I've had many tanks built using this silicone and even recently used it on a bulkhead in my sump with only 24 hour cure time with no issues to any fish or coral including sps. I would recommend using it as long as you can find it.
