Which type of silicon?

[Tango374]

Tonights project will be resealing my tank. I understand that I have to use 100% silicon but is there a specific brand that people are having the best luck with? So far the only brand I've read about using for this project is "GE Silicone I". Anybody else try this? Whats the difference in using either the "GE Silicon 1 "kitchen/bath" or the "Door/Window"? Also, my tank is 72x18x18. How many tubes should I be looking to bring home to do this? Thanks

GE Window & Door is what you want to use. The Kitchen & Bathroom kind has anti mold and mildew properties and from what I understand will hurt your fish.

To just reseal your tank, you'd probably need at least three tubes, maybe four.

I used 2 tubes to reseal my 150 (72x26x18). It was more than enough.

2 tubes of window and door it is. Thankyou

Just use the one with aquarium safe on it. I use "sellys glass for windows & aquariums"
