SOS Leak in corner of 600g

[Matthew L Moriarity]

Please help. I've recently given birth to a cute little 600 gallon and I founf today that it was leaking from a corner. It appears to be concentrated on a small hole due to the pooling in a single area. I tried putting caulk but made more of a mess than anything, I was wondering if I took another tube of silicone and used a pin like hole to squeeze silicone into the leak?

Pictures are below. Hoping for a fix, I know I could drain it and do a concrete seal job from the inside...but for the time being, a couple days hopefully, I a hoping there is a way to stop this leak.

new silicone does not adhere to cured silicone very well at all... it is exceptionally unlikely that you will be able to make a seal by overlaying in this manner...

You could try to seal it with the puddy used for attaching corals to live rock... but I doubt that will work either...

Basically, if there was a simple quick fix to a leaking aquarium we would all know about... but I'm retty darn sure there just isn't...

sorry to hear abou tyour leak... I hope you've healed quickly after giving birth to that monster...
