silicone turning pink !!!

hi !!!

we upgraded my sons little tank to another little but bigger tank
a 10 gal with a little live rock (4 lbs) will add more soon,sand bed 1",we have a hang on filter,heater and a single fluorencent strip for now...

will do a water test again but a few days ago thing were all in check.
seeded the new tank with some of his older sand,used the same rocks plus a little more and i have him doing water changes twice a week and use my DT water when i do my water changes..

all he has in there is a blue damsel,that teddy bear crab i fished out of my tank and i added a hermit to scavenge what ever is left over..

things that we will add soon are a smal skimmer,saw a cool little one at the lfs and some live rock.eventualy we will upgrade the lights to something interesting like t5s or led.

SO just noticed today that the silicone on the bottom corners near the sand bed is turning PINK ,like hot pink !!!!! the silicone is white/clear colour..

any idea what's this is ????

i have a few ideas but not sure !!
not enough circulation (i want to add a small pump)
sand bed not deep enough
not enough live rock

steff
