Long story short HELP!!!
Long story short .....I used a silicone as an adhesive that I thought was cured...felt cured but obviously was not ....It has leached into my tank which Im setting up ...(no livestock)...and it has anti mold /fungal. My question as I drain it......Is it safe to reuse that Brand new 4 inch sand bed after Im done cleaning or should I scrap everything and start from scratch?

You can't use any silicone with anti-mold/fungus. You can use only plain silicone. Just pay a little extra and buy the Perfecto brand, although I believe "GE Silicone 100%" will work: http://www.homedepot.ca/webapp/wcs/s...k=P_PartNumber

Probably best to dump everything, sorry to hear.
