Hey, for silicone, you should use GE SCS1200. It is an industrial grade adhesive sealant. It IS aquarium / reef safe and used by most tank builders. Some LFS's do carry it.

I have sealed several tanks with it, and once dry it is almost impossible to pull off.

Hope this helps, good luck on the repair!

Thanks I'll run down to Rona and grab some.
This will be a pain in the @$$ to say the least, ad I don't think I'll be able to completely dry my sump.
I'd be more than happy to accept volunteers for help lol.

I had the same thing happened
I'd reccomend a shop vac and lots of paper towel!
You can also use rtv silicone, Canadian tire has it. Super strong hold compared to regular silicone.
