Resealing a Tank
 
Greets all, i resealed a leaky tank that i had, stripped all the silicone out and redid it all

now i have water tested the tank and all is well, but still after 2 weeks it still stinks like silicone

Is it safe to use yet or is there somthing that i missed?

I have cleaned it angain and again, just at a loss now

thanx

yup, should be fine after 12 hours, toxicity wise. I siliconed some stuff in my sump and ran water thru it 4 hours later....
