What is the best black silicone I could use on my tank. I want to reseal a used 180 gal just for my own piece of mind and since I will be doing that I wanted black. Any information would be beneficial. Thanks

there is only two i would ever use RTV103, or SCS1200..

i hope you know what you are getting into resealing a tank that big...not a fun job by any means...

if the tank is leaking it needs to be taken apart, otherwise if the fillet is just in rough shape a reseal is fine, but painstaking...

Yeah its not leaking at all just want a reseal... I figured it will be a pain but just want some piece of mind. I don't know how old the tank is so want to have a fresh start on it.
