Then what did you use to fix up this tank?

I am using liquid acrylic glue from Dama named MTC-90.

You can get from Highland Plastics but the price for 6oz is 30 buck.

Yeah you might want to confirm if its okay to ship it in.

Just afraid it might fall under that area of flammable liquid area..

Happy Reefing,
