I have some advice you may want to pin to the top for others. I just did a reseal on a 20 gallon long on Monday it is now Thursday and the silicone is still tacky and smells like vinegar. I bought the GE Silicone 1 at my local Orange Big Box store, while at the store I did not think to check the date on the tube, nor did I think to check the date on the tube when I did the job. The date on the tube was from 2017 and it is 2021. Well after Googling if silicone expires apparently it does, this I did not know, and apparently the orange Big Box store had no idea either. So lesson learned , I'll have to take it out and redo it.

Awesome video! I was given a 33 gallon and after filling it I discovered it leaked. So now I'm resealing my first aquarium. I watched a bunch of other videos but yours has by far been the best and most thorough. I really appreciate the example on the pieces of wood. Thank you for making this!

Every time you reach for that acetone on top of the fishtank in the back, I cringe, fearing you'll accidentally dump it onto/into that tank.

What about the seal in-between the glass. Those need cut out and done at the same time. In order for the seal to hold correctly. So to the readers imagine assembling 5 panels of glass from scratch. Thats a complete reseal. This video is removing bad seal from unions but in between the panes. The glass edge doesn't set up against another glass to glass...they apply sealant first. Unless thats removed you aren't doing a complete reseal you can trust. Nevertheless, i wish you all Gods blessings. And may you all trust in jesus Christ.

Best resealing video I’ve seen. I feel so much more confident about resealing my 10 gallon and 75 gallon. Thank you

[@raisinmydog]

thank you for not doing video cuts/edits. This is what I needed to see

[@jodidesjardins6341]

Perfect video. I just stripped the silicone out of my corner 55 for the second time because my husband put soo much on the tank the first time around, it was a mess and started setting before he could even get smooth it out. So, 5 out 5 on this one for showing the exact amount to bead into the corners thanks!

I have a less than year old 55gal that started leaking in the middle of the night. Aqueon is a pain with returns/ replacements HOLD YOUR RECEIPTS GUYS! This video helped a lot. I'm not to concerned about lot's of water after I fix it tho. Been wanting to give my mudskippers a more fun oasis.

[@kyletran9266]

Any updates on the tank?

[@onlywei]

You really don't have to remove the rim first?

[@ethanboos515]

Bro, the fact that you did the close-up with the pieces of wood was awesome. Front start to finish, this was really awesome for someone who's never done this before.

[@Nexuhss]

Great video. Going to reseal an old 140 gallon that I just bought. One tip for your viewers is to be careful using strong off-gassing compounds like the ones used in this video in the presence of a currently running tank. The oxygen exchange of the tank will pull those chemicals into the water and if you have more sensitive fish or corals, they can die.

[@island_Dave_KeyWest]

Thanks for taking the time, being so thorough and going slowly, step by step, explaining what and why for each step.

[@DariusForReal1]

Excellent, detailed and super easy to follow. Your the best Brother. Best of luck

[@karengreene1999]

Good video! No crazy stuff and didn’t rush through any steps. Good job with camera angles. I think I can do it after watching this.

[@konsumterra1]

cheers - lots of good shots and tips - the prop sample wood was handy

[@normanbuchanan9710]

very concise and clear explanation and demonstration, thanks much.

[@tonyhind6992]

This was a real help watching you do it live as it were.

[@jonathangarza4622]

Bout to do my 165 gallon and this is the best video I’ve seen on it. Very detailed and straight to the point.

[@eugenb.8448]

I’m about to do this. Thanks for the superb explanation and demonstration!
