Is normal silicone adhesive ok to use in aquariums. I gather some shale pieces and am planning on creating a tank decoration by siliconing them together. Is this safe??
 
The only commercially available silicone that is safe, that I know of, is GE's clear Silicone I caulk, for windows and doors. Any bathroom or kitchen silicone is not safe, and has mildecides. If it says "do not use in aquariums" in any of the fine print, don't use it.
