i resealed a 180g recently and now i have it filled with water to test for leaks....so far no leaks...How long should i leave it filled for testing? i was thinking i should just leave it filled up for a week and if it hasnt started leaking or coming apart it should be fine to go ahead and bring inside and set it up...what do you guys think?

i havent put any corner pieces or trim along top or bottom yet because i figured if it doesnt leak or come apart without it on there it will def be fine with it....ill get a pic up in a few.

thanks
 
I haven't resealed a tank, but it seems to me like if it holds up for a week it would be fine...
 
gonna get the stand built the first weekend in march so ill just let it stay filled till then. i checked it this morning and still completly full, no leaks so far.
