KISS

Clearing my tank at $100. 5x2x2.5 ft with 3 ft sump and cabinet. 1 yr old. To clear by this Friday.

Mine is worse! My tank leak and the shop closed down. Couldn't locate the manufacturer.

Finally, I found the solution! Get a new tank, and a new cabinet! That's it!

My present 5 ft in wall tank is now leaking. Will make another new tank!

To draddttg: Actually, I have started with a 2 ft, complete with overflow and sump in 2001. Then, I got a 4ft IOS in early 2003, which is wrong for a marine set-up. It is now a chiclid tank. The thing with my present 5 ft is that it is built to fit into a hole ( which was hacked for this purpose) between my bedroom and my living room, so that the aquariunm can be viewed on both sides. This leakage is really a heartache for me. Actually, after hearing so many suggestions, im at loss at the solutions. To silicon only? Or to just make another main tank? Or to do the whole set-up again? $$$$$

Can u give me their contact numbers?

I spent around $1,400 for my last tank 5x2x2.5 ft complete with sump and cabinet. The manufacturer that came yesterday to take a look at my present tank just faxed me his quotation. Its around $3,000. I can see that quality of his tanks is much better. Who are your tank maker, guys?

Well, a tankmaker actually came down to see my tank. As the thickness for my 5 feet tank is only 10mm, he actually advised me to make a new tank. This time with 12mm thickness. If I want to keep my present tank, he have to remove the original silicon and re apply the new silicon. The cost would only be slightly cheaper than getting a new set of tank. What do you think? I must admit that the manufacturer of my present tank is a glass manufacturer and not an aquarium manufacturer.

Finally, after 6 months, the tank is dry and I just got the sand out of the tank. Now that I finally got to see the bottom glass, I really can't figure out where the leak is. I pour some water in about 2 cm in height and there appears to be some water leaking, but I still cant trace the source. Anybody knows who can I get help from? Means the person will come down and do it for a fee.

I called Hawaii Marine a few times but "its not in used'. Finally, managed to travel there on Saturday 17th April. True enough, the shop moved or closed down. To typrobin, the tank is now dry after 2 weeks. Where I can get the services of a tank maker to do the silicon job as you mentioned? Anybody can reccommend? I have never bought any live stock before from Hawaii as I prefer to get them near my flat in Pasir Ris. Most of my corals and a few fishes have died since I transfer them to 2 other 2 feet tank on that fateful morning.

I set up my 5 feet tank in Aug 03, bought the tank at Hawaii Marine. Last Saturday at 5am, the tank was leaking and I spend the next 3 hrs taking out the corals and live rocks and fishes and putting them in 2 tanks. Spend the rest of the day cleaning the house. Where can I get the tank fixed??

I bought a naso tang 1 month ago for my 5 feet tank. A week later, it has the same problem as yours. I immediately remove it and put it in my 2 feet tank. It died 30 minutes later.
