Aquarium Advice FINatic
Hi everyone!
This is a new thread linked to my last one. I believe we narrowed it down to poisoning from silicone I used to seal my sump/overflow (GE Silicone II Window & Door). I only let it cure for 24 hours and think this may have been the cause for my fish to die within a short 12-20 hour time span.
NOW... how do I remove this? Besides removing all traces of the old silicone & applying new correct silicone + proper wait time, what else is needed?
100% water change? Frequent partial water changes? Rinse LR in RO/DI water, or in mixed saltwater? LS rinse? Tank cleaning with rubbing alcohol/vinegar? (acrylic tank with acrylic overflow, glass sump with glass baffles)
I'm headed for a long week I think. I was planning this tank upgrade for months.
