the fishkeepers nightmare
I don't think that is the cause, I have never use any foam under a glass
tank and have never had a leak. kc "Dinky" wrote in message ink.net... "Mort" wrote in message . .. I would advise that you try to determine the cause of the leak before you end up going through the whole proccess again.... I already determined it, just a few minutes after the post. I don't know how I did it, I've set up a dozen large tanks, and never forgot it before, but I forgot the foam underneath it. I don't know how I forgot, but I did. Dumb, dumb, dumb. b

on an acrylic tank I do believe it is required to prevent pressure points
that cause cracks. kc "Dinky" wrote in message nk.net... "Pszemol" wrote in message ... "Dragon Slayer" wrote in message ...

"Dinky" wrote in message nk.net... Got it empty and dried out, and I can't for the life of me find anything but pristine silicone on all joints. Thinking of slathering on some silicone anyway, and hope for the best.
