BowieReefer84 January 31 January 31 I noticed my 120gap tank has a leak at bottom seam. When I move the pad it’s on it comes out . Need help with livestock and a plan. Anyone that can come over and help asap please text me. my tank has vermid snails and aptasia only. No other pests. I have a couple 30gal brutes plus my frag tank. I can leave frag tank running probably. This sucks. Not sure what I’m gonna do. 301-919-2861 Mike
MODreefer January 31 January 31 I cannot be of physical help. But I do have a 120 available immediately. I have a physical disability. So I can’t do the hobby I so desired. I also have the suction cups necessary for moving. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
gastone January 31 January 31 Sorry, Mike. I'm all the way down in Fredericksburg, VA. Do you have a couple of big bar clamps or long ratchet straps. I've seen a guy hold a seam for a year with bar clamps and I've seen ratchet straps hold a 600g tank.
monstamich January 31 January 31 Hey Mike, sorry to hear that. Unfortunately I’m a bit under the weather at the moment. Tractor supply usually keeps those 100-150 gallon Rubbermaid stock tanks in store if you have one somewhat close by. That’s always been my move for an emergency. You can usually resell them for most of your money back. Hope that helps. Here’s a link: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/search/Rubbermaid 100 gallon?isIntSrch=written Thanks, Mike I. 1
YHSublime January 31 January 31 Hey man, I unfortunately have to get to work, but rubbermade totes work as well, if you have enough heaters and simple pumps to keep water circulated, it can buy you some time until a more permanent-temporary system is put in place.
BowieReefer84 January 31 Author January 31 I got a 100gal brute from tractor supply. Everything moved over. Who wants a free 120gal with a leaky bottom left seam?
DaJMasta February 1 February 1 Sorry I saw this late after being in DC during the day, but I've moved to be just a bit south, good to hear things made it alright.

IIRC you pretty much made a bulletproof stand and wall mounted in your basement?

Maybe bite bullet and buy a new SCA tank so I can literally reuse everything including ghost overflow

Thank you though.
