I had gotten silicone to glue things together on the outworld (the tan tube connector "things") but I bought uncured, will it hurt the ants?

What do you mean with uncured?

I just learned that uncured means a liquid form in silicone, but is silicone hardened toxic to ants?

no, its not (from what I have read) but if there are loose hanging piaces in the corners, maybie they might think its food and bites it off, carries into the nest, and eats it... then I dont know! just be sure there is no really loose bits! :D

get silicone with no additives. 100 percent silicone, or aquarium silicone is best.

Aquarium silicone works fine.
