    silicone?

    There is a lot of debate on the GE silicone and stuff. I went with Shop DAP 2.8 OZ. Aquarium Sealant Clear at Lowes.com Lowes has it, it is on the same isle as the GE stuff just down farther near the super glues. Its only $4 a tube. Im using it for my DIY overflow box and the panels in my sump.

    Buying reflectors

    Ok so I soaked the used reflectors in CLR and vinegar. Neither seemed to work. So I am going to try and use my dremel to get the salt creep and what not off, and try and buff them. If that doesnt work, where is a good place to just buy the reflectors for a Power compact lights?
