I just finished deriming my tank. Got the silicone cleaned off, and now I got to clean it.

I set the tree in it to see how it fits, and it fits great!

if I'm not mistaken it looks like the titebond method (my favorite)
here's a link for Grimm's post

It is close to titebond. It is 2 parts black silicone ( only use 100% silicone GE 2) 1 part mineral spirits, and 1 part dried peat moss. Mix the silicone and mineral spirits first, then ad the peat. Then covered the nylon rope with it, and lade it on a pan of dried peat and dumped more peat on top to give it a good coating. It has been over 3 days, and it's still not dry! But it's getting close. It looks a to thin, so I will give it a second coat in a few days.
