8 ml silicone – colourless

This 8 ml tube of colourless silicone suits keepers who need to glue, seal or repair glass tanks, terrariums and their fittings. It is a one-component product, so it can be applied straight from the package without mixing. The supplier describes it as the type of silicone commonly used by glaziers in aquarium and terrarium construction.

Why it matters

• Cures from moisture: the silicone hardens under the influence of humidity at room temperature, so no heating or second component is needed.
• Colourless finish: the transparent colour keeps the joint visually discreet on glass and in the water.
• Multiple uses: it can be used to seal and repair submerged elements, fix equipment such as filters, feeders, caves and PVC tubes, and attach decorations like limestone, slate, wood or styrofoam.
• Durable and electrically insulating: the manufacturer states that the cured material is durable and electrically insulating.

What it works with

The sealant is intended for aquarium and terrarium maintenance and repair, where small joints, decoration bonding or local fixes are needed. Because the package holds 8 ml, it fits small repairs and single-task jobs rather than full tank construction. Surfaces must be cleaned and dried before application, as the product is applied only to clean and dry surfaces.
