   I bought a frag tank a while back and one of the seams is leaking!  (not happy)  I had to rip everything out of it and load my main tank.  Can someone help me repair this?  I don't know anything about sealing them.  It is an acrylic tank!
   Thanks in advance.

   Hey Sean
   
   Get it nice and clean and dry. Get some weld on 16. It is the thicker stuff in a squeeze tube.
   
   Angle the tank so the bad seam is straight down. You will just have to prop up the tank so the weld on wont run. Fill the seam with weldon. Let it set 24 hours and away you go.
