How do you repair an aquarium?

Answer 1

Aquarium safe silicone:

1 - Empty tank completely.

2 - Dry tank thoroughly.

3 - Patch up crack with aquarium safe silicone.

4 - Ensure it is completely set and dried before filling with water.

5 - Check for leaks

If problem still exists, repeat steps 1-5.

Answer 2

It would depend on what type of repair you need to do. There are special types of aquarium silicon that you would have to use. The regular home repair sort would kill your fish. You can find these at many pet or aquarium supplies. I have ordered them myself from the Foster and Smith vet supplies site, but I am sure there are many other suppliers as well.

Answer 3

This will depend on where the crack has occured. If it is at the seam, you may be able to remove all the old silicone & reseal the aquarium (when empty), but otherwise it's better to simply replace the tank.

Answer 4

It depends on what type of damage. If your aquarium has leakage then you need to replace the sealant. If your aquarium has cracks then you need to replace the glass with a crack or cut a piece of glass then you place it at the top of the crack using an aquarium sealant.
