Finally putting my home made green monster back together after about a year of down time. Got it working on land but, I am in need of a waterproof sealant to seal the bulb into the socket.

Member now, its going to stay under water and its 110 Volts. I dont wanna fry fish under water. I save that for the fish fryer...

Any good ideas of whats best?

I have a homemade light as well - used regular 100% silicone, got it at Wally's about five years ago for $1 a tube, light is still OK, GFCI does not pop. Only one fish looked like it had emissions coming from the tail end, but it looked like a CATfish, so I would have expected as much...
