Have a 2nd hand 75 gallon sump that had glass baffles in it...the person I got it from took two of the glass panes/baffles out...I want to reinstall said baffles..there is silicone on the glass and sides of the sump now...should I remove all old silicone from all glass before reinstalling baffles?..or will it help the glass/baffles seal better if I leave the old silicone in place?...thanks

yes, remove all the old silicone, as the new silicone will not stick to teh old silicone.

The silicone should comeout okay with a straight razorblade

Good luck
