how long does aquarium silicone last?
basically what the title says, iv got an old tank (not sure of age) i have to reseal some of it but wondering if its worth doing it all.

it has a 10 year life and thats only the seal exposed. where the tank is stuck together its indefinate becouse its not exposed to the air. cut out all old seal with a craft knif and reseal. very easy must be aquarium sealer other is toxic run a nice thin beed all around and then run your finger through so it goes on both sides of glass if you want a very good finish you can put masking tape on but it must be pulled of when you finish before glue starts to turn..

It's easy to do, if you have enough you may aswell do the whole lot.
