    I agree, Prof Dirk's black silicone is great quality - we recently used it and I definitely cannot complain :)

    Would normal black silicon that BW sell do the trick? Or does it have to be "aquarium" safe?

    needs to be "aquarium safe"... most commercially available silicones have an anti-bacterial or anti-fungus something of the other in it that makes it unsuitable for aquarium use...


    Dow Corning has a black silicone which is safe for aquarium use...
