I have a 72 gallon Aqueon bow front, it has been running for 6 years. We just had a 7 day power outage while we were out of town and lost everything (whole house generator has been ordered). while cleaning it out to start over, I noticed that the sealant in the corners has discolored from the original black to a yellow orange. It is still stuck to the glass tightly. See picture. I am concerned, question is should I be?

There's a couple of threads on here and just did a quick Google, consensus tends to be that it happens with age, possibly due to uv exposure from lights etc. Don't think it's a problem but something to keep an eye on
