What glue to use to build aquarium is it simply silicone used for caulking in your batch and kitchen?
Mehdys
NOT ALL SILCONES SEALANTS ARE THE SAME. YOU MUST CAREFULLY READ THE LABEL AND SEE IF THEY ARE AQUARIUM AND FISH FRIENDLY. USUALLY THERE IS SOME KIND OF WRITING ON THE LABELS THAT TALKS ABOUT IT BEING TESTED ON FATHEAD MINNOWS. GE SILICONE IS THE ORIGINAL GLUE USED BUT THEY HAVE LOTS OF DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS NOW AS WELL. READ THE LABEL, BUY IT AT THE PET STORE OR ONLINE THRU A PET SITE. IF YOU ARE TRYING TO FIX A LEAKER..... DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME.... BUY A NEW TANK.... THAT WAY YOU GET A GUARANTEE.

How does water leak into headlight assembly 2003 Chevy Venture?
All venture models have this problem. The silicone seal around the lens has failed. Simply remove the light assemble and re-silicone around the seam where lens meets the backing. Ideally you want to remove lens and old silicone and reseal. That can be tricky. You dont want to crack the lens while removing. Hint = use a hair dryer to heat up silicone seam first. Good luck
