I may be getting a 130 but the problem is I would need resealing and possibly euro braces. Can anyone recommend someone to reseal and an approximate cost? I just wanna know what I'm geting into.

I had a 125g tank burst in my house and that is a LOT of water. Water so deep it seeped under the drywall into the garage and onto the front porch. I totally would not chance resealing a big tank like that.

I know its much smaller, but i resealed my 40 gallon corner hex. I just cut all the old silicone out with a razor blade and cleaned it up. Got a couple tubes of sealant from the LFS and went over all the seams. I also went to lowes and bought a silicone tool for smoothing out the silicone in corners. Worked out great. Tank has been up for 2 years now and no problems at all.
