Just rebuilt a leaking 125 tank and just filled it with water. How long should I keep this water in there before draining and how long before I can safely house fish in the tank?
Do any chemicals leech out of the silicone into the water?
I used the GE type 1 silicone on the tank and let it cure for just under 24 hrs (21hrs)before filling. Could I drain it tomorrow, clean it real good then refill for the fish to go in? Also I assume I could just put one of my already cycled cannister filters on there and be good to go, correct? Got some fishies on hold that I need to get delivered asap.
TIA,
JP
