Started to put together the sump, and realized after I adhered the filter sock attachment I'm using the wrong silicone. How deadly is this and how hard is this to get out of my tank?

The consensus when it comes to unknowns and reef keeping. . . better safe than sorry. So I would remove it. Should be fairly easy to remove, especially if the sock holder is acrylic. Just use a razorblade and rubbing alcohol.

That said, how is the sock holder mounted? I mean if it's mounted super high and will never touch the water it might be OK. . .
