50 gallon breeder bottom glass cracked


Recommended Posts

Accidentally cracked the bottom glass of a 50 gallon breeder while moving it.  Can this be repaired?  I am assuming that running sealant over the crack in not feasible.

How big is the crack and where is it?

 

I have repaired smaller tanks by using the sealant on small cracks.  I also cut a small piece of glass to put over the crack after the sealant is applied as a patch.  Makes for a stronger joint.  If it is a big crack you would have to replace the bottom pane of glass.  

 

Remember you are going to have about 400lbs of water weight in there.      :(
