Thanks to its exceptional adhesion to glass surfaces, it delivers superior sealing performance. It forms a strong and long-lasting bond without loosening or separating over time.
It is harmless to living things.
Its completely neutral curing formula makes it safe for fish, plants, and other aquarium inhabitants. It releases no chemicals into the water and does not negatively impact the aquarium ecosystem.
Aquarium Silicone
What is aquarium silicone?
Aquarium silicone is a 100% silicone-based adhesive and sealant that provides superior resistance to water and moisture. Thanks to its high elasticity, it provides strong adhesion to glass surfaces and maintains its shape for many years. Its special formulas, which do not harm fish or plant health, can be safely used for joining and repairing aquarium glass. Available in transparent or black, it offers an aesthetically pleasing appearance and does not yellow over time.
Aquarium Silicone Properties
- Water resistance: Maintains its adhesive strength even with continuous contact with water.
- High elasticity: Adapts to surface movements, reducing the risk of cracking.
- Harmless formula: Safe for fish and plants.
- Mold and mildew resistance: Prevents mold growth in humid environments (for aquarium use, a fungicide-free type is preferred).
- UV resistance: Does not yellow or deteriorate in sunlight.
- Color options: Available in transparent and black.
- Strong adhesion: Provides high adhesion to glass, ceramics, and some metals.
- Easy application: Can be drawn smoothly with the cartridge gun.
Applications of Aquarium Silicone
- Aquarium assembly and repair
Joining glass panels, ensuring sealing, and repairing broken glass. - Water tanks and pools
Sealing solutions for ornamental ponds, fish ponds, and small water tanks. - Bathroom and kitchen grout
Waterproof insulation around the sink, shower enclosure, and countertop edges (for use separate from the aquarium). - Glass and window installation
Providing long-lasting sealing in areas exposed to external factors. - Hiding algae stains
Black silicone provides an aesthetically pleasing look to aquarium corners and joints.
Aquarium Silicone Application Tips
- The surface to be coated must be clean and dry. If dust or oil residue remains on the glass, adhesion will be reduced.
- Wiping the surface with alcohol or a similar cleaner before applying silicone will ensure a stronger adhesion.
- Immediately after applying the sealant, smoothing the edges with your finger or a spatula will give you a more professional look.
- The silicone sealant must be allowed to fully cure according to the manufacturer's recommendations before filling the aquarium completely with water.
- In old aquarium repairs, the old silicone must be completely scraped off, and the surface must be spotless. Applying silicone on top of that may have adhesion problems in the long term.
- Since it will be used in humid environments, choosing a high-quality, water-resistant aquarium silicone will ensure a long-lasting result.
