Sorry guys i was busy cleaning and moving all the fish.. The silicone cam off im goong to try and reseal it... But im afraid the other sides will give up as well.. The tank has bern running for 6 months but i bought it used

You can't just reseal one side, silicone won't seal to silicone. I can't tell from the pic, did the seam open or just start leaking.

I have just re sealed on seam before and it worked out fine for me.

Well it sucks that happen but at least its just a seal problem.

Not necessarily true. A member on here (can't remember who) did a test and found that it sticks well as long as the old silicone is properly cleaned.

I would do the whole tank though.

I would junk the tank if it did it once it willl unseal again. Better to invest in new tank than screw around with all that water.

it is not heard at all to silicon a tank just takes time, a good cleaning, small spacers, tape, silicon, and more time. no reason not to use good glass and drop money on a new tank.

When my CL special 100 gal. blew out on me, it was the best thing ever. It was a sign that I needed a new 135!
