how to remove aqarium sealent?

mike d Feb 01, 2004 07:33 PM

i started turning my 75 galon tank into a half and half tank so i put a peice of plexi glass in and used aquarium selant in there to keep water from geting through. but i have to pull the plug on the project. so what is the easiest way to remove the sealant? im pretty sure i can use a razor blade to remove most of it from the side but how do i get the rest off?

Sealent is a very generic term...

What type of sealent did you use? Just good ole aquarium silicone? If so you can pretty much just peel it off and it shoudl come off. Rubbing alchol will also take it off easily.

And if the tank is glass you can use a simple razor blade, but becareful if its an acrylic tank. It will scratch.
