Silicone/sealant safe for use in terrarium?

[Kristen]

So I'm new to owning frogs. I'm wanting to get red eyed tree frogs. I am currently getting my vivarum together. We used a expanding foam to create terrain. We were told to seal it using a silicon sealant spray, we can't find any where we live. We need a spray to cover the area since a caulk won't work. The closest thing we find is Thompsons water seal, but are worried it may be toxic to the frogs. Any ideas or suggestions?

Pn the expanding foam bottle does it say that it is waterproof/for use outside? Because usaully if it says that you dont need to seal it. but I sealed mine with pond sealer, Its just a tub of siliconish stuff that you paint on,

You don't need to seal it using spray, expanding foam is porous though, so you may want to cover it with something like this: Silicone II Window and Door Caulk Brown 9.8 oz-GE5080 12C at The Home Depot

Make sure you don't get anything that says "Kitchen and Bath". In the kitchen and bath versions they included mold inhibitors (killers), which can be harmful to frogs. Hope this helps!

Kristen: its only water resistant. so I'm guessing i'll need to seal it.
Dalton: Thanks for the tip!
Thankyou all for the advice. I'm really excited and can't wait!! Thanks again!

Does anyone know where we could find a pond sealant?

[ohyoufancy]

some hom edepot or lowes may have it if not you can try petstores that have pond supplies or order it online..... pretty much anyone who sells pond supplies and liners SHOULD have it or be able to order it

Ok look GE makes a 100% silicon, it comes in a tube. I suggest that you get black so you can see it. Then get some gloves and spread it evenly over the entire surface of the GS, then put on your eco-earth. Done and Done. PS- sprays have aerosol and there toxic to all

thanks all. I didnt know that sprays could be toxic thanks for the ps IrishRonin.
Do they have a clear for that IrishRonin? i painted some of it so it will look like rock and would hate to cover over it...

It just says it's water resistant.
