We have an acrylic frag tank about 48" long that has a small leak on the front corner seam. It is currently empty but we will be using it on our new set-up.

Is this an easy fix?

Should be a very easy fix as long as the acrylic isn't brittle or crazed.

Ross I have plenty if you need it sealed up. No sence in buying some if thats all you want it for.

Thanks Jack. I can pick this up from you tomorrow, if that is convenient for you.

Either way. Bring me the tank or I can loan you the cement. If you do it yourself you might want to get some acrylic to put a brace in where the leak was.

I'll be at the airport all day.

I'll clean the tank up and get with Eve. Maybe we can figure a time to take it by...

Thanks.
