Topic: Cadlight 45 leaking on the bottom of the tank Posted: September 28 2015 at 11:36pm |
The silicon was pealed off for some reason (7 mos old tank). Luckily it was fixable. I emptied the whole tank, let it dried, sealed it and waited for 48 hrs to let the new silicon to be firmed. Then waiting 1 day for sand and water settled before transferred all the live stock back in. Due to my lack of experience , taking me a lot of work and damage. I lost few lps, and some of my zoa havent open til now :(

What was the cause of the leak? What was the fix? I'd like to know what to watch out for in the future for my own tank :)

That is if you don't already have a tote big enough and the water isn't gushing out

If it were me I would run to Walmart and buy a Rubbermaid tote to store all your livestock in with a heater and power head till you can figure it all out
