Silicone Sealant for aquariums?

[Phreaker 10+ year member]

Can I use this to seal my box up or do I need a different type of silicine sealant?

Would liquid ails be a better choice or this stuff?

with my experience it really doesnt matter. i think anything works just make sure you run your finger down the corner and get it all pushed in so you don't have any holes in the caulking.

any kind of caulk will work just fine really. If your cuts are good and you assemble it well, you dont even need any sealant.

sometimes i use only caulk, sometimes i use only silicone, sometimes i use both. either way it'll *** out right if you rub it right.
