so far i have filled the corners more with bondo and some fiberglass tape, then let it sit a day. i put on 2 more layers of iso resin and let it sit for a few more days.
tomorrow i will fill it and i hope it does not leak.
will update after tommorrow.

Cool, thanks for the fast update :D
 
GL, aquaponics are awesome. If I didn't live in a state that got so cold during the winter, I would be all over something like this. Nice work and I hope you get the leak sorted out.
 
I ripped out the 2x2's holding the glass in, peeled off all the silicone and redid it with new wood.
it still leaks from the bottom right corner. just a few drops every day.
i put silicone between the plexiglass and the wood, and again around the glass and the ledge.
since if got fish in it already, i will probably wait til i harvest before redoing it. any suggestions on how to stop this leak?

its currently got 2 koi fish, lots of gold tilapia, and a few blue tilapias.
