Our Fish Tank in Trouble!!!

[@oscarlindvall1053]

Looks like you can house the fishes quite comfortably for the forseeable future, looking forward to what's next. If there is any, as you put it, blessing in disguise it's that we as viewers get to see a new scape :)

[@tropicalfishhub]

Yes I was quite lucky that aquariums in my fish room were almost empty so I could move all the fish there without having to keep them in plastic tubs. I'm still thinking about how the new setup will look like!

[@Gilsfishroom]

That's a shame mate. Like you said, good opportunity to make some changes.

[@tropicalfishhub]

Thanks mate! Indeed, I'm hoping to make this tank look better and more leak-proof

[@LushSaltyAquariums]

Such a bummer as this was a lovely tank. Happens to the best of us. Are you going to try anything new in the 2.0?

[@tropicalfishhub]

Indeed, I'm still missing that setup! For 2.0 version, I'm thinking of an unheated S.American river set up with some corydoras, rubber nose plecos and faster/larger tetras that can handle fast flow

Great to see you putting a postitive from a negative look forward to seeing it be erected again mate

[@tropicalfishhub]

Thanks Paul! Its been years since something like that happened, but I'm trying to make the best of this situation

Where was your tank made mate? I got one and the silicone on it is pretty similar looking to yours

[@tropicalfishhub]

Its from Jungle Pets. A fairly disappointing experience!

[@alanpitkeathly6752]

@@tropicalfishhub well that's where my one came from as well. My one if 5x2x2 so quite large. The silicone work is awful, the brace isn't right and it's not square corner to corner. I just thought I would get one from them because of the cost which was still £475 delivered. Hopefully you manage to sort yours out with no issues

[@tropicalfishhub]

@@alanpitkeathly6752 I was also attracted by price. They gave me the cheapest quote. I just re-siliconed the entire leaky side, hoping that it won't cause further problems

Bad luck.

[@tropicalfishhub]

Indeed!
