    Fix Leak suggestions

    Very good friend of mine took his tank to get resealed, starting filling 260 gallon tank and has two pinhole leaks at the base. No answer from the guy that sealed it. Suggestions, recommendations?? cross posted on FB.

    Follow-up to my question: Got the most recommendations for Chris Buys. He picked up my tank yesterday and said it was probably made in the early 90's. If all the glass is good, then reseal, no problem!

    Hmm, outside aquarium. ah, not for me. I'll stick with koi pond outside and Reef inside. Wife is a little stressed, part of why I'm asking if anyone sees a problem with resealing a tank that's probably 15-20 years old.

    Looking at options... Woke to a leaking tank at 4:30 am Saturday. I now am the proud owner of a beautiful Lagoon! Can't find the problem, but it's at or near the bottom. Probably getting resealed. So if I want to get a new stand while waiting for reseal, what/where do you recommend? I think...

    Definitely was looking to keep it budget friendly. With patience, figured I could find used equipment for $300. or less. That word, Patience, keeps coming up.. LOL

    To Enhance Old with New or Not! That is the question!

    Question: *Since the Cannons are such old tech and ONLY white and blue, should I add something like a Hydra 26HD on either side of the middle set or A1 Primes, to mix in more diverse lighting? I am new to getting serious about a reef, vs having fish and dead coral. Except for aptasia and...

    Vertex Alpha 250 Proper depth/Instructions

    Anyone have knowledge concerning old Vertex Alpha 250 skimmer? I inherited this great big beauty. Sump is 9.5" deep where it sits, see attached pic. Wanted to see if any seasoned reefers know what range of depth Vertex instructions gave. I'm thinking around 7.5" might be better. I've been...
