Watertight inside the sump?

[blacknife]

I built my sump to replace the one i cracked. just hacked things together quick.

after sitting for 2 days water from my highest chamber is slowly leaking into one of the other chambers.

I don't see this as a major problem. but i would like your oppinions.

start over or just get the dammed thing running?


this sump is "temporary" <just to do till i hack some thing better together> i would rather get my equipment running again before i loose any more livestock.

If water is just leaking from one section to another it shouldnt be too big of an issue.....are the water levels where you want them to be in each of the sections?.....if so then run the sump temporarily until you build your new one....

temporary sump, I do not see it as a problem.
Depending on where the leak is, I do not see it as a problem on permanent installation either.
