New GE1 Silicone - Is it still fish and aquarium safe?

Показать описание
In this video I did a little research to try and find out if the new GE1 silicone is still fish safe so that we can continue using this silicone to reseal aquariums as well as use it for other aquarium-related projects

Great piece of investigation and low key a very valuable video. A lot of blogs etc are just assuming they reformulated it making it questionable/unsuitable for aquariums. Thanks for this.

Omg thanks bro I've been everywhere looking for aquarium safe silicone where I'm from and it was a headache to find 1. Been searching around online concerning ge1 because of this same problem and all I found was arguments and confusion about this product. My sincerest thanks for reaching out to the manufacturers and getting the info for your fellow aquarist.

Thank you for taking the time to research the product. I'm currently in the process of resealing a 55 gallon tank I recently bought and was at my local hardware store when I noticed the change on the packaging. I confused because of the new labeling wording and the warning on the back stating not to use on aquariums.
Again thanks for the update.

Hey, just want to say thanks (3 years later!) for the info, it's real helpful, got a subscriber just for being informative. Thanks again.

I needed this. I was thrown off by the packaging as well and was the reason I went with the ASI sealant. Good to know that the GE 1 can still be used for lesser needs.

Thank you, I'm making my first aquarium and was really worried about that. I was so confused about why it changed and if it was still safe, this helped so much

Thank you for clearing up the change!!

I'd been thru too many videos on YT of ppl running at the mouth for ten mins or more just to inevitably not say anything of value about aquarium safe silicone or even tell you which one they use lol

I was stressing out because I couldn't find the silicone in the old packaging and wasn't sure if the silicone I just purchased was safe for aquarium use. Thank you SO MUCH for reassuring me that the formula hasn't changed!

Thank you for researching the safety of the product. I just got back from Home Depot and was totally confused about what was safe. Your research cleared up what is safe to use.

I reference this video all the time for the people that think it's unsafe. Without knowing the whole story. Good video.

thanks for doing the research on this issue. I have put off fixing a tank for a couple years now because of the GE silicone I question (or the place is still out of stock). And, I could never get an informed or give 1/2 a shit answer from anyone working at the big box stores. I'm a subscriber now, Dude.

Thanks so much. I was troubled I couldn’t find silicone 1 without the 7 years mold free verbiage!
