Any Old Silicone?

[Ken]

Can I use the multi-purpose silicone sold in WalMart on the inside of my aquarium?

The label has warnings about toxic solvents.

I would only use 100% silicone. It will say its food safe. I used a silicone made by DAP. I purchased it at Home Depot.

Do you really need us to answer this for you? Food safe silicone is fish safe. 100% silicone without mold/mildew inhibitors, added dyes or toxic solvents is o.k..
