fixing a cracked tank.
 
just daydreaming here...

my old 135 is sitting in my back yard.

it is all cracked up on the bottom glass pane.

can i fix it by simply siliconing in a sheet of acrylic on top of the broken glass? or would i have to remove the broken pane and replace it?

this would be for a sump.

Hey Shao

I would think siliconing another pane simmilar size ontop would work. You could even do it on both sides if you're paranoid. Although I haven't ever heard of anyone doing this...

If you want we can replace the whole pane of glass. It isn't that hard just takes some elbow grease. I can help you out if you want.

thanks.
i may take you up on that offer.

but this wont be for quite a while.

and of course depends on if my new floor can handle a new tank and the 135 sump. :lol:
