How come you left the corner with 2x4 and rocked? Was it load bearing wall?
I didnt trust myself to make a durable clean seam of silicone.

The glass overlaps the wood 2" all the way around so i know i wont have to worry about those seems and i ripped 2x4 and nailed in the corner of the wood and poured heavy epoxy over. The pressure will break the seams before a flat panel so you have to make where the wood joins thick and not square

Love the mangroves. Do you dose magnesium? I've always wanted mangroves but I've held off because I hear the consune a lot of magnesium which I guess wouldn't be too bad
