Bro, can you give me the brand of glue that you use?

[@HenryCorleoeneSang]

Sir, during you put the inner glue, did you using different nozzle to apply the glue? Because the glue shape and size are so precise and tidy. Wow, you are so professional.

[@jeffmathews363]

Its mainly experience, but you can do it by cutting an old credit card

[@Subi_doo]

If you cut the tip at an angle with a diameter of 3/16, when you press it in the corner, and move in one quick pass, you can usually get a straight 1/4 bead seam that needs no smoothing Can’t wait to build my 7’long x 3’ wide x 2’ tall tank soon, but I will be injecting the silicone instead of bead laying

[@neeshooff704]

@@Subi_doo Did you build it? how did you inject the silicone?

[@Subi_doo]

@@neeshooff704 I build a 60x 36x 24 and I clamped the entire tank and used 1/16 tile spacers and made sure everything was tight. I injected the silicone between the panels up to the spacers. I let it all dry. Pulled the spacers and filled the spacer hole in. After everything dried for a week-week and a half. I came back, taped 1/4 on each side top side and bottom, and ran my inner seal. It is not imperative that this be done at the same time as the structural silicone is setting. I always do this last and never had an issue.

[@neeshooff704]

@@Subi_doo Great! Even I'm thinking of getting into tank building because doing this will reduce the cost of an aquarium by half. Just getting some insights so that I can build good tanks. May take 2-3 tanks to get it right. Also is the spacer thing necessary? What people usually do here is that place the front and back glass on top of the bottom and then the side glass in between them, on the bottom glass itself. Just apply beads and glue them together. Is that fine?

Hey @null, what silicon sealant brand did you use for this? I'm planning to build a tempered tank, what sealant can you recommend?

[@TheUtahAquarist]

ASI Aquarium Silicon is simply the best. I've looked at data sheets from GE, Permatex, Momentive, Dow, and others and although the ASI is probably actually manufactured by Momentive or Dow, it's specially formulated for high shear strength for the pressures of 750 gallon (>2800 liter) aquariums (depending on the dimensions). It's also cheaper than Momentive 103 or GE SCS1200, and about the same price as GE 1 or GE Supreme. The one downside is that you only have about 5-7 minutes from the time you lay a bead until it begins to set. For small aquariums < 20 gallon (75 liters), GE 1 will work and doesn't start to skin for about 30 minutes.

[@DIYStories]

Very Nice ! Neat and clean [ thumbs up ]

[@DIYStories]

Which Silicon do you use ? please mention the brand Name or share a link .

[@jbobdavis1984]

00:59 So the adhesive you're using is strong enough to hold up the 2 pieces of glass without tape or a form?

[@arshadsattar-ko2ib]

HE HAS USED TAPE 1:36

[@petrac2840]

​@@arshadsattar-ko2ibthe tape is only there until it cures. When cured, if cleaned properly, it should be strong enough to hold.

[@dantu5377]

[@SureshBopitiya]

This is the best silicone work I have seen! Is it OK to seal the tank after the joins have dried, or do you need to apply the seal straight away?

[@ogacules5827]

same question

[@kornbred1653]

You want to apply right away so that all silicone flows together to create a good seal.

[@SureshBopitiya]

@@kornbred1653 Thanks. What about when you are re-sealing a tank? How is that different?

[@Irohbro]

@@SureshBopitiya I,m planing to make my own huge tank and plan to weld a metal frame to fit it perfectly in my home. thinking abote 3D printed Inserts to creat a stronger seal in the corners.

[@Nick-fw5uj]

@@SureshBopitiya it is better to apply all at once so it joins together but resealing is no problem if you properly remove the old silicone, it is really important to remove the old silicone and you should also remove that silicone residu that can stay behind when you remove the old silicone

Do you cut the side panels a few millimeters shorter to accommodate for the thickness of the silicone bead you squeeze in order for the corners to come together perfectly?

[@Nick-fw5uj]

I'd recommend keeping 1mm a side for the silicone

[@muddypalmsera]

What did you use as a glue? What are you using to clean the excess glue off with? Did you use something to hold the glass in place as you set each side into each other?

[@MetinAkalp]

You should use antibacterial aquarium silicone. Otherwise, the water will be poisoned. Silicone can be cleaned with a flat object. If it is dry, you can use a sharp metal. For example, razor. The person in the video is experienced. If you're not good at using silicone, leave a 1cm gap around the edges and stick the tape. Apply the silicone. Remove the tape when you're done. So the silicone does not reach everywhere. Definitely use gloves. You can hold the glass with a simple tape. Easier if someone can help you here by holding the window upright.

Wall is 118 inches long, 8.5 inches wide only and could make it some 15 inches or taller. Wall ends 42 inches from floor up. Would one long continues glass panel hold up or wpuld i need a frame? Left and right of tank would be wall support beams that the tank could be squeezed between. Would that work at all and is glass or acrylic better for this? Thanks.

Looks so easy dispensing silicon from those things… when I tried to seal my tank, I got so immensely frustrated because I squeezed the dispenser with all my might and almost NOTHING would come out.

[@fisherchi]

The silicone has a plastic wrap that keeps it fresh. You have to poke holes through it so sealant can come out. The seal is at the base of the plastic nozzle of sealant. The sealant dispenser has a gadget on side of it you have to extend that is made to poke the holes. It is metal piece about 3 to 4 inches long and thin.
