i heard that alot of ppl use GE 1, and i used it for my sump, but haven't tested the sump yet

[SteveNMegz]

I think thats what it is under the label GE it says Silicone 1

is that right?

[SteveNMegz]

anyone else know for sure?

Be sure that it doesn't contain any mold inhibitors. There are special aquarium silicone products that I've found at a hardware store, but one of the GE products is fine. I think the DIY forum will have a list or something.

GE Silicone 1, 100% silicone is what I've used. The number 2 has mold inhibitors and you don't want to use that.
