What to do with all this goo

[ThePBM]

So i went and bought a caulking gun and 10oz of Silicone I to put together some parts for my waterbridge. I barely made a dent in the Silicone so now i have a lot extra.
Any ideas on what i could use the rest for? I'm already gonna use some to stack several piece of slate, but that's the extent of my using this stuff.

You could make a nice pvc cave. Just silicone a bunch of dry gravel to a large pvc pipe, It could be a huge elbow or T peice, anything.

GE I is not aqua-safe. GE II for showers and bathroom needs is the silicone to use for aquariums.

Yes, I've already done that. That still only prolongs it for some time, not indefinitely, of course.

I have GE I. GE II has mildew resistance which is what is bad for aquariums.

Good idea. I actually have about 6 feet of clear PVC tubing of 3" diameter that would be nice covered in gravel. Actually, maybe i'll silicone on some needlepoint mesh i have and make a java moss covered cave with the clear PVC so light still shines into the cave
