Hi folks,

I have three tanks - which I enjoy grealty. but I am getting really busy at
work etc and the the cleaning and water changes on the three are getting to
be a time problem. I am thinking of retiring my 33g and keeping my 75g and
10 g( for fry) going. ( I also have an isolation tank going but I am not
counting that.

The question - How can I store the tank safely - I Hear that if not done
right the silicone seal will dry and crack and therefore I may run the risk
of a leak when I re-fill etc.

The silicone should last just fine. I've stored tanks for years
without problems.

I don't want to sell the tank at this stage because it is fairly new and has
a good filter.

Thanks
