Underwater silicone?

[Plum]

My plywood 960g sprung a small, dripping leak where the ply meets the ply meets the glass viewing pane. It is at the approximate 18" mark from the bottom, so I would rather not empty the thing.

Anyone have any experience with underwater silicone. Any recommendations?

wow. this is interesting. how low is the leak? could you empty the tank to that level for a couple days while you seal it?

I will have to empty about 650 gallons - I guess maybe I am just being lazy.... Did not want to do it if people had had good results with an underwater product.

I have never heard of one that worked, but I am far from an expert on the subject.

The only thing I believe that is available is epoxy that is made to work under water. http://www.aquaticeco.com/subcategories/3298/Underwater-Epoxy

This is what I use. http://www.aquarium-munster.com/index.php?con_lang=2&con_cat=187&con_art=126 but you need to clean the inside first before putting it on.

Can you get TEC7 in the US? Works well underwater
