Came home today and found a huge white spot in one of my comers on my 180 gallon arcrilc. uploadfromtaptalk1364432900249.jpg
How can I fix this or is there nothing I can do to fix it. I can't take it down because I have no place to put the fish that are in it.

You better empty that thing quick that seal Is breaking. You could possibly repair it with acrylic epoxy

130 gallons is still a lot of water pressure I would empty half way if not completely.

Only way to repair it is to drain the tank and repair with a bevel of weld on #40 or a piece of square stock acrylic glued on the inside corner. First step is get something to put ur fish in, rubbermaid stock tank or any kind of intex pool/ kiddie pool will work. Better drain it now before it spreads. Not a hard repair...big mess to clean if you let it go too long.

Rubbermaid totes could house them for some time as long they got a air pump. Not draining it completely could spread the damage more.

Ok talk to the local fish store they will hose the fish for me. So how should I fix this. Would a line of weild on 16 in all the corners work or should I take a 1inch square piece of acrylic and weild it in all the corners?
