    Thanks. All this work because some $3 bromeliads have out grown the tank they're in.

    I went and bought new glass tonight and a few things that might remove the old silicone. I tried to get acetic acid, but the guys at the hardware store have never heard of it. John, where do you get acetic acid?

    I don't think it's possible for just anyone to buy it.

    Well, I got the tank apart using Mötsenböcker's "Lift-off" and a razor blade. So, now the "tank" is a collection of parts that have been totally stripped of silicone. I have new glass panels out in the car and may start construction tomorrow. Just need to find an appropriate silicone to put it together.

    What is it and where did you get it Kurt? Did it make it easy?
