AND HOW DID YOU DO THIS!!!! thats like maybe 150-200 worth of acrylic

Yea I know acrylic is sky high. Owner of sign shop is a good friend of the family. Im supposed to go get some more for a 90 Gallon build. I assembled sump only had 2 small dripping leaks. Guess I'll patch with weldon 16. I was pretty surprised that was all since it was our first time working with acrylic.

just use a little more of the liquid glue to hold everything together better.

Ok Guys anyone ever fixed a leak in an acrylic aquarium. I have read all over the web. One option is to put Weld-on 16 on area. Other I have read is to cut a small piece of the acrylic and reapply Weld-on 3 to patch area. Anyone have experience with either methods.


Thanks

I suggest cutting two small pieces of acrylic and patch it from the inside and outside.
