Post Safe Silicone?

Can anyone give me ideas on what brands of silicone are safe for my fish?  I'm in the middle of making a Back To Nature-style background, and need lotsa silicone to attach the styrofoam to the glass.  It'll be probably 6-8 weeks before the tank is filled with water.

Are any of the types at KMart or Home Depot OK?

Thanks!

GE 100% Silicone I Window and Door at HD/Walmart/Kmart.

It's blue and white.  Remember to get type I and not type II.

Thanks, DATTACK (or, should I say TANKS!),

BTW, you gave me the inspiration for my overdriven canopy, so, thanks for that one, as well!  smiley*

Anything that's 100% pure silicone is safe - other types contain Arsenic as a curing agent.
