An island somewhere......
Need some input..... Can this acrylic tank be repaired? The crack is on the back panel of a 240g. tank, 8'x2'x2', .5" acrylic..... rear panel about 7" in from the corner starting at the overflow and diagonal towards the bottom center of the tank, spanning about 12"-14". I'm thinking a 2'x2' square panel or 2'x3' bonded to the exterior-back panel and another one sized to fit on the inside panel. What do you all think? enough to withhold the pressure? Top, bottom and sides of the aquarium are fine. Just noticed this crack today.....
