Emergency repair!

Eeek! Shock, horror! I noticed this morning that my Tropheus tank started a dribble! There is still much to do before I can strip this tank to fix it properly; so nothing some big blobs of silicone; to do a temporary fix. It's holding for now! Wish me luck!

 

Crap. Good luck with the temporary fix. Just remember that silicone will not stick properly if applied on a wet surface. Keep an eye on it in the mean time.

 

Sorry to hear... i think that's everyone's dreaded nightmare

Dont take too long to get the fish out and repair... Two years ago we got home from work one day to a tank two thirds empty and the fish battling to breath

 

@MariaS Yes, I seem to have it in hand for now, thankfully! Thank you for your concern! I still have much to do before I can move these young fish, wish me luck!

 

Will keep the fngers and toes crossed for you... its not a nice thing to happen.

 

@MariaS Thank you, I need a bit of luck, I would hate to lose any of my new babies!

 

Hope it all works out

 

Cargo tie down straps ... keep the tank glass in place and that repair will last for ever.

Later Ferdie
