Algae within the silicon

How worried should I be about this algae growing into the silicon.

I have a 75 with MUCH worse "algae intrusion" all around. Been that way for years, no leaks yet.

Is this your tank?

Now, that's a high tech tank...

 

[thedavidzoo]

That has to be giving off some kind of toxins...

 

[dhavalsp]

Lane, lol...it took me a while to figure the silicon valley reference...

Great Post

Had not thought about this much, but I have the same thing in one of my tanks, and never been thoughtful enough to ask that question

Thats taking water cooled components to a whole new level. :lol:

I've actually thought about using an aquarium as a source of water to cool down LEDs and such... and whether it would work.

The glue you're seeing intrusion into is nothing to worry about -- it's not actually what holds your aquarium together. The glue between the joints does. You'll never get algae there, and even at that, unless it mutates into a silicon based life form--oh, we are all in trouble then.

That reassuring Josh!! thanks!
