Default silicone

I want to add a bit of plastic to my noisy slashing penguin filter lip to shut it up.
I have found an aquarium safe silicone from Canadian tire. It says on the label" safe for aquariums-- do not get below water surface".
Huh?? What does that mean?
if you used it to repair a leaky tank woouldn't it be below the water surface?
