I bought the silicone from Home Depot or Lowes, GE brand with the #1, it's safe for aquarium. I believe it's doesn't say safe for aquarium but the lfs told me that's the one to use. Do not use the #2 it's not aquarium safe.

the #2 is Reef SAFE you just have to let it cure for the proper amount of time. Just like other adhesives. the Cure time is related to the size of bead . for the average aquarium this would be 2-3 weeks in normal indoor temp and humidity... You need to let it cure until a few days after the smell is totally gone away.

This is from my USE . Not read from a forum or the Internet....
