Concrete Tank

[adrideh]

Hi, I have a question regarding a concrete tank leeching off dangerous chemicals...

I recently posted my aquarium disaster. And many people suggested that chemicals leeched off the cement is causing the disaster.

Would appreciate suggestion what I can do to overcome this, or maybe putting pool paint / epoxy will prevent this from happening ?

Or maybe ceramic floor tiles ?

Thanks in advance...

aquaticeco.com carries a concrete sealer and epoxy coating. They also carry epoxy paint in several colors for concrete.

I would find a rubber based pool paint to coat that tank. You want one that is approved for potable water

Don't understand, what do you mean ?

Thanks for the input.. It is a problem for me to ship paints from overseas into Indonesia. I am sure that the shipping + tax will be higher than the actual paint price, thanks for the reference though
