Doesn't look very strong...silicone might be good for water proofing but not for holding a viv with furnishings.

Might also endanger the animals inside...

i wouldnt trust that to hold a viv either, it looks nowhere near strong enough to hold a viv, especially not since you have just stuck it to the sides of the uprights. If you had stuck the cross bars to the uprights it might have a better chance of standing up so id do that and screw it together too.
