A couple tank specific questions

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Crap idk how I'd do that with my stock and setup as it is right now. Wish you could just do it real quick with the water in it lol :( May be easier when I move and it is in a more open spot, right now theres only half a foot between walls to get back to the sump lol.

Anyway, I found this as something a bit more "milky" however the milkyness is on the outside (almost as if its not polished" and on the end of the pane (not on the inside of the seam, but the 1/2 inch butt end of the sheet). Don't think it's a concern but I just wanna get an idea of what this "milky white" I should be looking for.

Here's a pic of the weakened seams on my old 240G that I referred to as cloudy/milky. You can see the two milky patches. This picture is of the top panel, but I had the same issues on the bottom and the weakened seams eventually led to a very slow (perhaps one drop per day?) leak that I didn't even know about until the day that I sold the tank.

Your seams look fine...I wouldn't sweat it. When they start to look like the pic below, that's when you should probably start making arrangements to reinforce with some square acrylic rods and weld-on 40. Don't bother with weld-on 16...it's not nearly as strong as 40.
