I've done quite a bit of reading on the subject, and I think I've got a good handle on things, but there is one detail I can't find information about: where exactly does the silicon go?
I know that there is a bead of silicon on the inside of the tank along each joint. However, is there also a bead of silicon that goes between each piece of glass?

Nevermind.
My very next click on the net found the answer. Gotta love how things like this work.
