Ok I've decided on my spacer size and silicone type. Spacers will be 1/8" wide by 1/16" thick clear lexan cut from an old rc car body I had, and silicone will be GE RTV108 or 103. I need suggestions on silicone color? My tank will have a 1-1/2" black abs plastic rim at top and bottom very similar to oceanic tanks and will be black back. So do I go with black or clear seams? my glass arrived today and I will be assembling tank next Saturday.

Thanks Dan
