diy aquarium sump

I bought the fiji cube 20 long DIY sump kit and it says i need the things in this pic of the directions, but I can’t find any “acrylic plastic silicone” online in general let alone anything that says it’s safe for aquariums. Any recommendations or ideas as to where i can find it?

Hi there my name is Pat Murphy, I am new to Reef 2 Reef kinda. I've been hesitant to post on here. But this will be my first article. Last summer (2018) I decided to go ahead and build a system. I decided on a 120gallon. This put the wheels in motion for me to learn how to silicone a sump...
