my 30 g all-glass developed a leak in the middle of the night and all the water ran out by morning. i removed the bottom plastic strip and discovered that there is a 3 mm gap between the bottom plate and the front plate. the silicone filling this gap deteriorated causing the catastrophic leak. is this gap normal? how can i remove the silicone, i.e. is this a chemical to dissolve it, so that i can re-seal the tank? -- Carl R.
