How much silicone would typically be required in constructing a 96"L x 36"W x 24" H aquarium made from 12mm glass. How many 310ml tubes? Is there a formula to use? Thank you.
 
Measure the total length of all seams and check with the manufacturer on usage...then probably double it for waste. Mask off the edges to get a clean line after cleaning all edges with MEK or alcohol.
