Default Possible leak on silicon of Tank.

Hello

Looking for advice on how to figure out if bottom silicone seal is starting to leak. I have noticed some salt creep on the outside of my tank at the plastic trim. I was thinking of pushing sand back so I can see if silicone is pulling off the glass.

Next would be do I set up a temp or loaner tank if I can find one and strip all silicone off and re-seal the existing tank. The other option would be to find or have a new tank built. Maybe a rimless same sort of dimensions as my current tank as I do not want to rebuild stand right now.

Please weigh in and give me your thoughts and experiences with similar situations.
