Well, I am finally getting the tank tomorrow night. Won't be able to
test how well it holds water until probably the weekend, since it's going
to rain the rest of the week here.

Got the tank today. It's a old 55 gallon Oceanic tank. I can't
believe how THICK the glass and silicone sealant is. Hopefully I'll
get it set up over the weekend. Need to decide what kind of filter I
want.


Well? How is the tank working out?

I am thinking there might have been a good chance it would still be
without leaks ... silicone is some very tough stuff ... I have tanks
20-30 years old which still have not been resealed.
