10 gallon vertical test build

i think i'm going to use more styroform to make my rocks. Just found a guy in my cities fish club who is going to drill my tank for me, so as soon as he is available to do it will be getting that done so i can then set the FB in place so I can cut the background to its final length and get started.

One problem I'm having atm is finding some safe silicon to use. People are saying don't use anything that is for bathrooms, kitches, etc. Home Depot has GE Silicon I and II and DAP brand stuff but i'm not sure if its safe to use or not, the label doesn't really give much information about any stuff that's in it that could be an issue

Shop GE 9.8 Oz. White Silicone at Lowes.com

Most outside door and window by GE doesn't have anti-mildew in it. That is the stuff I used and I haven't had a problem

Ok, i'll probably grab a tube of that then, getting the tank drilled tomorrow morning so should be able to get cracking this weekend

[thadmy]

Yeah and I have mold growing in my tank so it must be an ok brand haha.... I figure if molds growing I'm in the clear

well started messing around with the background. Not sure how i feel about it at the moment

I think it looks good so far!

Most use the GE Silicone II version anymore since the smells disappear faster than the GE Silicone I
and as stated: Outdoor window and door versions.

only GE Silicon II i saw was Kitchen, bath, Plumbing kind.

Little more puzzle playing on the background. Looks ok in raw state i guess
