Re: Plastic cage preferance ??

The cage will ultimately be for my kalatoa SD retic, but will house my jampea dwarf until the kalatoa gets to size(unless the jamp doesn't get much bigger). I like the boamaster cause I can just go get it, the prolines seem nice. My question with the prolines is since its says they are chemical resistant how well do they seal with silicone?

silicone can be tricky with plastic, you need to find the right type of silicone, HA6 (standard aquarium stuff) will not stick to many types of PVC and HDPE, unless primed, which is a pain to be honest, better to find out exactly what plastic is used and get the right sealant for the job
