you should cut all the panels completly appart and re-do the seams. The important part of the tanks strength is the bond in between the glass panels, not the silicone that is smeared in the seem. It is not hard but with that large of a tank I would seek somone who has experience or a pro., thats a big mess if the seem should fail
