I have a 360 gallon acrylic tank and the seams are pretty nice minus a few spots where on the inside edges of the seams its as if about 1/16 inch of the seam has been whited out and in one spot the seam i whited out pretty bad how do i fix this? Do i get weld on 4 or 16 and apply it on the seams or do i weld on 1/4x1/4 rod on every seam? SOrry no pics but the main question here is what to do about white seams?

Well for starters I'm one who can help u with this ! but without pictures nobody can help u how big and where are these openings? white marks usually means cracks or splits in seams
are you sure that the white colouring is bad? it doesn't necessarily mean anything is wrong.
any acrylic owners have this issue on their tanks?

I think im going to use weld on 16 and 1/2x 1//2 triangle rod and do all the seams how does that sound?
is this tank leaking? or is it empty now and you are concerned about leakage because of the discolouring?
the tank does not leak but looks as it could soon! It is a tank i just picked up and im in the process of getting it running LOTS of diy im thinking triangle rod would do what i want!
woooo stop if the tank doesnt leak and from what i can tell from the pics ur fine relax no need to use any weldon u will just make it look crapy those white marks are fine
they are old welds they look like their still intack leave them alone if theres a leak then fine but dont mess with it
