and how long ago was that built? I went to use scs1200 originally but was scared off of it when i read that it was not aquarium safe.

The 116gal has been up since June & my office tank since August. I also know of several other people who's tank were built using SCS 1200 that have been up twice as long.

Thats good to know then as I have a tube of it lying around here. I ended up using a product with less adhesive strength only because it said aquarium safe on it lol. I guess i know better next time.
