Tank Question

[pballafreak]

Ok, So I brought back out the 5 1/2 gallon I had been using for the nano buildoff. I would like to use this tank as a rock-only tank. I will just have the live rock, sand, heater, and pump. I just want this to display some rock, and maybe a small clean up crew. But this tank, one of the corners is higher than the other on the construction of the tank. One corner measures 1/4 inch higher than the other 3 sides. Is this tank still good, is there a good chance that this tank will break due to this? Thanks in advnace.

i dont think it will fall apart unless you think the seams are bad.
having one side a little higher is no big deall, the water will fing it's own level mark and stay there. you might notice the extra height but should be good to go

Thanks for the quick reply tims. The height shouldnt bother me because I'm gonna make my hood normal level to so I dont notice my hood.
I have another question, I have heard about being able to get silicone at home depot, but what kind should I get that is reef safe? I plan on going tonight to get some lexan and silicon and I would like to know what silicon to get. Thanks again.

make sure it is #I not #II check to make sure it does not have anything in it at all.
you will find it in the paint section

make sure it does not say mildew resistant. it should also say 100% pure silly cone.
