No. It has an anti bacterial ingredient. Use 100% silicone. Just play it safe and get a tube of AGA aquarium silicone from your lfs.

Go to the fish store and save yourself some troubles... I keep a brand new tube just in case I need some.

I agree with not using that product. You can use any 100% silicone or aquarium sealant. I've used DAP & GE brands 100% silicone sealant with good results when partitioning sumps.
