New vivarium - Crowdsourcing on Frog Forum

[clownonfire]

I was reading somewhere that the GE Silicone II has a mold resisting agent that shouldn't be used in things with animals but the GE Silicone I would be OK since it doesn't include the added agent. Not totally up on this but when I did my Dart Viv after reading that I used the Silicone I.
I tried the glue gun for my small job this morning and so far so good.

I didn't know that. In the Darts Terrarium thread by John, http://www.frogforum.net/vivarium-te...struction.html, he used the GE II silicone. I've been using the same one, and making sure to leave the terrarium breathe before introducing live plants and animals.

I just did some searches on the topic and see where its mostly opinion on the use of I or II.
Bioseal is the agent.

I read several articles and no one has reported problems with using II.

good, I'm glad I did ok. This stuff is so strong it held a white shelf mushroom the size if my hand. And I didn't have to secure it for it to dry in place. Like 5 minutes maybe

Wow, that set quick. I used Gorilla Glue for doing some touch up on a background and that worked good but does foam up and is too hard to do any trimming off if it gets to places you don't want it.
