***UPDATE***

Wet/ Dry is all done. Just waiting on the pump which should be in this week.


I've put together a seperate overflow for water changes... this is just going to dump out in my back yard. Before its all set up I want to paint the pipes in the display Black.

are you going to leave the stand open like that?

The picture you posted shows that the sililcone you bought is mildew resistant. This is bad, it means there are chemicals in it that are meant to kill stuff that tries to grow on it. I would imagine its possible that it could leach into your tank.

There are two types of Silicone I. The tub and tile stuff is mildew resistant, the door and window stuff is not. They are both Silicone I, and they both come in all colors including clear. I would not use the stuff you pictured.

No, we've got some nice looking wood we're going to use to make our own cabinets and canopy.
